Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Baked beans

I like your rendition of the classic, and good for you, baked beans.

if my bean cooker ever becomes functional again, I might give it a try, as a test.

likely, the sugar will be reduced, and compensated for with additional bbq sauce, which might be one and the same? anyways, something tomato like "needs" to be a part of the effective solution.

perhaps some Hebrew national or similar hot dogs will be chopped and added. down here in the poor South, we make do with whatever adds the most flavor at least cost. ya know? anyhoo, we don't have to use National Hebrew.

when one is in a hurry for Sunday dinner, opening some Van Camps pork & beans, and adding pineapple chunks, fried bacon, chopped dogs, and brown sugar and/or molasses will do in a pinch. the first rule is to allow the beans to rule, ok?

Beans and hot dogs aren't just a southern thing, every Saturday night when I was growing up mom would make us homemade baked beans and red hot dogs, or "snappers" as we'd like to call them.

My wife is an excellent cook but she has struggled with the baked beans on several occasions. Will have to talk to mom and find out what her secret is to making her killer baked beans.

Once you get the secret, will you do a DIY thread please?

You guys have let the azz-bag ruin this forum by playing into his hand. Please DFTFT...

Thats all I ask too. It brings up the level enjoyment and education to all parties involved when a recipe is well crafted and documented in pictures.

I'm headed back east this Saturday to see family, i'll see what I can do about getting her recipe. If I remember right, it was a fairly simple recipe but man those beans were out of this world.

My mom's were terrific as is the baked beans my wife makes. Each a little different from the other, but both outstanding.

That's not really correct, but I guess you can use any terminology you choose.
All most all of the dutch ovens made after the prevalent use of indoor wood stoves and the age of electricity were smooth tops with flat bottoms and were/are still listed under that name by the mnfg's.

The most commonly referred to "bean pots" were generaly fired earthen ware. I don't think I have ever seen a cast iron piece that was specifically marked bean pot... and I've seen a lot of cast iron. but what ever works...

The wrath of DIYgay will be upon you soon

Boy, does it ever. Thanks for the info. Next week it will be a stew pot. Shortly after that it will something else.

Stick around. There is more to learn.

Another one of your fabrications. You spelled dining incorrectly sunshine.

all this talk about beans is becoming intriguing.

can we use it to make ethanol for our automobiles?

sorry, off-topic. I'm am thinking if I can get the goat-chain oil odor out of my bean bucket, I'm gonna do some in that cast-iron container.

maybe start with Great Northerns, then advance to Pintos and finally wind up with the Anasazis. I don't know. but, the local Ingles did have some hotdogs on sale today. that's a good omen.

legumes, such as beans might not be Paleo, but who cares?

At least you have a pot to piss in.

No doubt he will be along with a piss recipe.

I always like to put sausage in my white beans (soup or stewed beans) like the great northern. I usually use hillshires smoked sausage in the red casing. I generally brown the sausage in a skillet then add the beans afterwards.
I make oven baked beans with red or brown beans and sometimes add browned hamburger to rest of the ingredients..

And then some.

Bark, Ronnie!
