DRESSED UP, SLOW COOKED CANNED BAKED BEANS



Dressed Up, Slow Cooked Canned Baked Beans image

My sister turned me on to this wonderful way to dress up canned baked or barbeque beans (and she nabbed it from our cousin). They are delightful, and such an easy way to make canned taste homemade. I love to serve these with barbequed meat, and either cold slaw or potatoe salad. This recipe can easily be adjusted to serve the number of people in your party. You can also add more or less brown sugar, depending on how much sweetness you prefer.

SLOW-COOKED HOMEMADE BAKED BEANS



Slow-Cooked Homemade Baked Beans image

I like making baked beans from dried beans because they are not as mushy as canned baked beans. I found this recipe on a package of Publix dried navy beans. I make it as written on the package, but I add a few extra slices of bacon, 3 ounces of tomato paste, and 1 teaspoon vinegar. The "cooking" time does not include the time for soaking the beans.

Provided by TasteTester

Categories     Beans

Time 10h25m

Yield 10-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 slices smoked bacon
16 ounces dried navy beans
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup molasses
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon salt

Steps:

  • QUICK SOAK: Place 16 ounces of dried beans in a large saucepan with 6-8 cups of water. Cover and let stand overnight or at least 6-8 hours. Drain and rinse beans (discard soak water).
  • OVERNIGHT SOAK: Place 16 ounces of dried beans in a large saucepan with 6-8 cups water. Cover and let stand overnight or at least 6-8 hours. Drain and rinse beans (discard soak water).
  • TO COOK BEANS: Add 6 cups fresh water to the beans after soaking. Cover and bring just to boiling on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently with lid tilted, about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally, or until desired tenderness. Stir gently and very little to prevent breaking of skins; add water, if needed, during cook time. Makes about 6 cups of cooked beans.
  • TO MAKE BAKED BEANS: Cut bacon into 1-inch pieces. Combine with remaining ingredients in slow cooker. Cover and cook on low 8-10 hours. Stir occasionally, if possible. Makes about 10 cups of baked beans. Note: the number of servings below depends on how many other side dishes there are.

  • Add some vegetables: Diced onions, bell peppers, and corn are all great additions to baked beans. They add sweetness and crunch.
  • Season the beans: Don't forget to season the beans with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to bring out the flavor of the beans.
  • Cook the beans on low: This will help to prevent the beans from drying out or burning.
