Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Scratch Baked Beans?

A brisket is in the plans for a family dinner. Any good recipes for beans from scratch?

I’ll take a can of store bought beans and doctor the cup.

Usually showboat brand.

Add some mustard, Worcester, brown suga, salt, peppa.

Set it off with some skillet sausage. Diced jalapeños.

Cover with Bacon and put in oven for a bit.

2 lbs. Navy Pea Beans
12 oz. Bottle Molasses
2 tsp. Dry Mustard
2 Tbsp. Baking Soda
½ cup Brown Sugar
3 Tbsp. Ketchup
2 large onions
½ lb. Salt pork
1Lb Bacon (cooked and cut up)
1 lb. pulled pork
Soak beans overnight, discard water.
Add fresh water, baking soda and salt pork, boil 10 minutes.
Strain and reserve water. To the water add Molasses, dry mustard, brown sugar and ketchup.
Layer onions, pork and beans. Cover with reserved liquid
300 oven 5-6 hrs

Dunno, never cooked anything out of scratch.

Pretty much limited to doctoring quality canned baked beans without starting the day before. And those can be very good. Starting with an inferior beans, not so good.

Bacon
Onion
Ground beef
Ketchup
Mustard
Apple cider vinegar
Salt
Pepper
Pork and beans
Kidney beans
Butter beans

Never been successful with dried beans. Couple of cans of pork and beans (Fareway or ALDI are good - NOT Van Camps!) - drain in a strainer. Cut up some bacon and brown - add cut-up green onion partway through. Dump in the drained beans. Add ketchup and brown sugar, some WooChesterShire sauce and dried mustard. Don't overcook - heat and let cool to get rid of most moisture. Reheat to eat.

Already trying to start a fight......


Not a thing wrong with the ole standby....Van Camps.


I suppose Aldi makes a Beanie Weenie????

Bean wars?

Somewhere I've got the idea the water you have has a lot to do with getting dry beans softened.

If you don't want to soak beans over night, just use a few cans of canned pinto beans and kidney beans.

Rinse and add brown sugar, grilled diced bacon and onion, and a slice of diced up ham. Maybe add a little garlic.

Cook on stove top for about two hours on medium heat.

Simple, but WAY better than store bought baked beans.

I aint buying no German pork and beans.

I just sampled the beans, no so bad.

p & b, br sugar, ketchup, onion, bacon, dry mustard

let me re-phrase that wabi

p & b. br sugar. ketchup. onion. bacon. dry mustard.

Uhhh......what about the vinegar?


You forgot the vinegar.

So what did you make?

if referring to my ingredients, there is plenty of vinegar supplied by the ketchup

There is almost some vinegar in Ketchup. Almost some.

Never made from scratch but if we do I think Id start with this recipe.
