Picking pole beans is so much easier on the back than picking bush beans. And the Rattlesnakes are worth stringing because they are so darn delicious.
I think the Rattlesnake beans are perfect when they are cooked just tender, but to the point where they will fall apart, releasing their little beans when stirred into the greasy seasoning of choice. The cooking takes 2-1/2 minutes under pressure. It's surprising how different different green beans can taste!
