Categories     Side Dish     Beans and Peas     Baked Bean Recipes

Time 15h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup dried navy beans
4 cups water
¼ cup ketchup
¼ cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon chili powder
1 small onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Place the navy beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight. Or, bring the beans and water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour. Drain and rinse before using.
  • Place the beans in a large saucepan with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Stir the ketchup, maple syrup, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and chili powder together in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Once the beans have simmered for 1 hour, drain, and reserve the cooking liquid. Pour the beans into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and stir in the chopped onion and the molasses sauce. Stir in enough of the reserved cooking liquid so the sauce covers the beans by 1/4 inch.
  • Cover, and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C), and cook 6 hours longer. Stir the beans after they have cooked for 3 hours. Once the beans are tender and the sauce has reduced and is sticky, remove from the oven, stir, recover, and allow to stand 15 minutes before serving.

REAL OLD FASHION OVEN BAKED BEANS



Real Old Fashion Oven Baked Beans image

Doctored-up "canned beans" are OK if you're in a hurry...I've done it more than once, but for REAL Baked Beans, give these a try! The aroma of them baking in the oven is heavenly!!! A stoneware bean pot is preferred, but you can use a small covered roaster or casserole if need be. My Dad always used lean salt pork, but I prefer to use a good smoked bacon.

Time P1DT6h

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb navy beans
2 teaspoons baking soda
water
1/2 cup light molasses
1/2 cup catsup
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons seasoning salt, Lawry's preferred
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 lb thick slab bacon, diced (thick sliced is OK)

Steps:

  • THE NIGHT BEFORE:.
  • Wash & sort beans for any small stones.
  • Place in a large kettle & cover with water, about 3 inches above the beans.
  • Cover & soak overnight.
  • THE NEXT MORNING:.
  • Drain & add 6 cups fresh cold water.
  • Stir in the baking soda (this helps remove the "music" afterwards, but no guarantees. LOL!).
  • Cover & bring to a boil -- WATCH CAREFULLY so as to not boil over!
  • Reduce heat & simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Drain & reserve the bean water.
  • Preheat oven to 300°.
  • Add remaing ingredients plus 2 cups of the reserved bean water.
  • Place everything into the bean pot (or whatever you're using) & cover.
  • (Use double-thick aluminum foil to cover if need to.).
  • Bake for 3 to 4 hours.
  • IMPORTANT: Check every couple of hours, adding more bean water if needed, so the beans don't cook dry.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: Different types of beans have different textures and flavors. Great Northern beans are a popular choice for baked beans, as they hold their shape well and have a mild flavor.
  • Soak the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight helps to soften them and reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 2-3 minutes, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Baked beans are a great way to use up leftover spices and herbs. Some common seasonings used in baked beans include brown sugar, molasses, ketchup, mustard, garlic, onion, and bacon. You can also add a bit of heat with cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Slow-cook the beans: Slow-cooking the beans helps to develop their flavor and make them tender. You can slow-cook the beans in a crock pot or in the oven. If you're cooking the beans in the oven, be sure to cover the pot so that the beans don't dry out.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Baked beans are a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular sides for baked beans include cornbread, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Baked beans are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a casual meal or a potluck.
