Maple Baked Beans (Parker's Maple Barn) image

I've tried several baked bean recipes and this is one of my favorites. I grew up standing in line on Sunday mornings waiting for a coveted seat for breakfast at Parker's Maple Barn in NH. I was delighted that this recipe was on Food Network's FoodNation With Bobby Flay.

Time 12h15m

Yield 12 1/2 cup servings, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs kidney beans or 2 lbs navy beans
8 pieces salt pork (1-inch cubes)
1 Spanish onion, sliced
2 1/2 cups very hot water (for Bean Goop)
1/2 cup light brown sugar (for Bean Goop)
1/4 cup dark brown sugar (for Bean Goop)
1/2 cup molasses (for Bean Goop)
1/2 cup ketchup (for Bean Goop)
1/4 cup cider vinegar (for Bean Goop)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup (for Bean Goop. Recommended Parker's Maple Barn Pure Maple Syrup)
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard (for Bean Goop)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt (for Bean Goop)
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper (for Bean Goop)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Fill a stockpot with the beans and enough cold water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil and parboil the beans for approximately 20 minutes. Drain the water and reserve for later use.
  • Put together Bean Goop: In a large bowl or medium-size saucepan, mix the hot water with the sugars and molasses to dissolve the sugars. Then mix in all remaining ingredients. Set aside for use in the Baked Beans. Yield: about 1 quart.
  • Place 4 salt pork cubes and half of the onion on the bottom of the bean pot. Fill the pot 3/4 full with beans. Add the Bean Goop. Fill the rest of the pot with the reserved water. Place the remaining cubes of salt pork and onion on top of the beans.
  • Cover first with a layer of plastic wrap, then a layer of aluminum foil. Bake in the oven for 10 hours.
  • Check beans at that time, blowing on them to see if the skin peels back. If so, they are finished. Time will vary depending on your oven and how long the beans were parboiled in the beginning. Cooking time could increase to as long as 12 hours total.

These beans were a little too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. I usually add a little extra bacon because we love bacon in our family.

I'm not a big fan of baked beans, but I actually really liked these. The maple syrup gave them a nice sweetness.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The beans were tender, but the sauce was a little bland.

I found that the beans took longer to cook than the recipe stated. I had to add an extra 30 minutes of cooking time.
