I've so far I know 3 ways to finger a Bb:

Bb
1--|1--
1--|-2-
Side A# key 12-|---

Any more ways?

--3 D|Bb---
and the octave key of course. this note is really easily bent up and down, too.

friend found this, works great on my horn

Left Hand: Octave, B key, Bis
Right Hand: F key, Side A#, High F# key

not very good for fast passages due to the complexity/crowdedness in the right hand, but man, it really works well for me. lemme know how it works

I'm trying to figure out the fingering chart everone is using

left hand: A and G holes and side D
right hand: F and E holes

would that be: D-23 | 12- ?

Palm D | -23 or Palm E | -23 works well for me. Learnt that from Ernie Watts.
