Carrots take forever to get soft. How long do sweet carrots take to cook in a pot?

Sliced into thicker slices

I have no idea and don't go by time. I stick a fork in the carrots and shut off the flame when the fork slides in easily.

But if the carrots burn, I don't mind. The parts that aren't charcoalized are very,very sweet.

Cooking time will depend on the age of the carrots and the size of the pieces. Smaller pieces and younger carrots cook faster. Older ones have a tough woody core. And FTR, so-called baby carrots are not. They're older carrots that have been peeled and shaped to resemble baby carrots, so expect them to take longer to cook.
