MAMA NEELY'S BAKED BEANS



Mama Neely's Baked Beans image

Pat: Every Fourth of July, Mama Neely made her famous baked beans: she'd brown ground beef and then doctor that beef with molasses, brown sugar, and plenty of spices. Let me tell you, those beans were good. And so are these. We've found that using smoked sausage in place of the ground beef (or pork shoulder, as in our restaurant recipe) adds a smoky depth to the dish. Once you make these beans, there is no going back. If you want to put your own spin on it, you can use kidney beans instead of pork and beans, but I say my mama's way is best.

Tips:

  • Use dried beans: Dried beans are more flavorful and economical than canned beans. If you use dried beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Choose the right type of beans: There are many different types of beans that can be used in baked beans, such as navy beans, kidney beans, and black beans. Each type of bean has its own unique flavor and texture. Experiment with different types of beans to find your favorite.
  • Use a flavorful cooking liquid: The cooking liquid for baked beans is just as important as the beans themselves. Use a flavorful broth or stock, such as chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth. You can also add other flavorful ingredients to the cooking liquid, such as onions, garlic, and celery.
  • Simmer the beans slowly: Baked beans should be simmered slowly over low heat. This allows the beans to absorb the flavors of the cooking liquid and become tender.
  • Add your favorite ingredients: Once the beans are tender, you can add your favorite ingredients to the baked beans. Some popular additions include bacon, sausage, onions, peppers, and tomatoes. You can also add spices and herbs to taste.

Conclusion:

Baked beans are a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make delicious baked beans that will be the hit of your next potluck or barbecue.
