Beans are a staple side dish of BBQ, one of my very favorite foods, and it is often served with white bread, so we understand what it is. There’s just no reason to put the two together.
Besides, I know that with that first bite, a generous glob of beans is going to drool down the front of my shirt, and piss me off.

I certainly would encourage anyone to cook it they have the time but the point of beans on toast, is it’s quick and easy. And Heinz is the best choice though an own brand is usually fine.

no, your tastes differ from mine so we must fight on the internet i prefer bush’s beans. i don’t think i’ve given heinz beans a fair shake though so like my opinion is pretty uninformed,
i usually just throw my own recipe on the smoker. if i’m not doing straight up chili, i’ll cook some beans up most of the way smooth but not entirely smooth (the smoothest hummus of your life is 45 minutes in the electric pressure cooker. i do 20 with bbq beans), make some quick gravy (mix my favorite BBQ sauces with a few spices but not too many as the meat’s rub contributes a lot, come to think of it i usually just use extra rub and bbq sauce and a can of tomato sauce) then throw it all on the smoker in a disposable foil tin with some sauteed onions and peppers underneath the meat to catch all the drippin’s and the rub that comes off the meat with it. after 2-3 hours the beans are done, stir it once an hour maybe if you want, put another foil pan underneath to protect from burning, and let it sit in with the meat until it’s done. top it up with tomato sauce, water, broth, wine, beer, rum, whiskey, or bbq sauce (whatever floats your fancy), taste it before serving and adjust the spices. it’ll take a few attempts to get your recipe to where you want it and to figure out which sauces and rubs and spices you want to use, but it’s worth the experimentation and you get to eat the results
