Thanks Pork & beans for breakfast on the S-Class ships, but haven't had it for dinner. Food is a very subjective issue. Personally, I don't have a problem. There's always something to my liking on the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4774Papa Posted May 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Never seen it on our seven X cruises. If they serve it, I am sure it is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kborth Posted May 26, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted May 26, 2014 No I saw it on a Celebrity Daily chef.s recommendation. But you have eased my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geospyder Posted May 26, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Just got off a B2B on the Reflection and - yes, they had Pork and Beans on the dinner menu. It was definitely not like the Van Camp's Pork and Beans out of the can :) Actually looked quite good and the person eating it said it was good.

Oxo Posted May 26, 2014 #8 Share Posted May 26, 2014 We love Celebrities' Bread n Pull-It. It is served only 1 night on a 7 day cruise and we ensure that we do not miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a white bean puree with pork tenderloin. It was pretty good but the pork was a bit overcooked. Not your usual pork and beans, thats for sure.

cruisefreaks Posted May 26, 2014 #15 Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) OH YEAH, It was featured on the Eclipse on the TA. I totally cracked up, the waiter told me it was silced pork loin with white canellini beans. Kind of like a Cassoulet. It was probably delicious, however it was THE joke of the night :D Edited May 26, 2014 by cruisefreaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ma Bell Posted May 27, 2014 #16 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) It was on our Eclipse cruise in March. I couldn't believe it so gave it a try. It was edible, but not anything I would ever order again. It was just completely bland. Edited May 27, 2014 by Ma Bell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boscobeans Posted May 27, 2014 #18 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I had visions of the scene from Blazing Saddles. :eek: When I saw it on the menu I pictured Charlie Chaplin in "The Immigrant" having the waiter serve him a plate of beans for his first meal in the U.S.A. I'm sure it would not be the same on Celebrity. LOL bosco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tteettimes Posted May 27, 2014 #19 Share Posted May 27, 2014 when you eat pork 'n beans it makes you want to ask somebody to "pull my finger" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted May 27, 2014 #20 Share Posted May 27, 2014 There certainly are a number of pork cuts that could go very well with beans on the side....I don't recall seeing this offered on a ship, but I probably would order it. Could be a very nice pork chop with beans as a side, or pork loin with beans on the side. The name is catchy....but no different than the now renamed "airline chicken" in blu which wasn't a tiny piece of chicken in tasteless sauce that you would get on an airline, but named because the bottom piece of the wing is left on the chicken breast.

Rare Cruise Junky Posted May 11, 2016 #25 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Don't suppose anyone has the recipe for this do they? DH had on it Connie last week and loved it! I believe it was a white bean puree with braised pork tenderloin and pork cheeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
