My friend who makes the "all day beans" is from W. Va. For me, it depends on what the beans will be used for. In a salad, I like them just barely cooked. If I'm eating them hot with some bacon and onion, I like them cooked about 15 minutes. Except for soups, 15 minutes is about the longest I can stand to cook them.
The best bean I grew last year was McCaslan. All the others were very stringy. This year we're growing Supermarconi. Also Rocquencourt as a bush bean.
