Best Homemade Baked Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Cut bacon into bite size pieces.
• Cook bacon in microwave, checking after each minute, or cook in a skillet, draining fat.
• Don't let it get crisp.
• Meanwhile, mix the remaining ingredients in a 3 quart casserole dish.
• Add bacon and mix a little.
• Bake uncovered for one hour at 350*.
• It's best if they set out to cool for one hour before you serve them.

Steps:

• Special equipment: 4 individual crocks
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the molasses, ketchup, mustard, and chiles in a blender and puree. Scrape that into a big bowl, add the beans and season with salt and black pepper, and gently toss so that the beans are coated with the molasses mixture. Divide the mixture evenly amongst individual crocks. Top each crock with a piece of pancetta, sprig of rosemary and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Bake in the oven until the bacon is browned and fat is rendered, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Pick through the beans and remove any pebbles. Place beans in a colander and rinse under cold water. Transfer the beans to a large pot or bowl, add water to cover by 2-inches and let soak overnight. The beans will rehydrate and swell to twice their size. Drain and rinse the beans, then put in a saucepan. Cover the beans with fresh water and place over medium heat. Add the remaining ingredients, except for the bacon. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 25 minutes or until the beans are tender but not breaking apart. Transfer the beans and broth to a 2-quart oven-safe dish. Lay bacon slices in a single layer on top of the beans. Bake in a preheated 325 degree F oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour to cook the bacon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.

Steps:

• Place the beans in a large saucepan with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour.
• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Stir the ketchup, maple syrup, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and chili powder together in a small bowl; set aside.
• Once the beans have simmered for 1 hour, drain, and reserve the cooking liquid. Pour the beans into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and stir in the chopped onion and the molasses sauce. Stir in enough of the reserved cooking liquid so the sauce covers the beans by 1/4 inch.
• Cover, and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C), and cook 6 hours longer. Stir the beans after they have cooked for 3 hours. Once the beans are tender and the sauce has reduced and is sticky, remove from the oven, stir, recover, and allow to stand 15 minutes before serving.

• Cover and bake for one hour in the oven.
• You can uncover the second 1/2 hour if you like your beans on the thick side.

Steps:

• Fry bacon in frying pan.
• I cut into bite sized pieces with scissors before frying.
• As bacon fries, chop onions.
• When bacon is finished, remove from pan,drain and wrap in paper towels to absorb grease.
• Saute onions in bacon fat til translucent.

• Stir in bacon, onions, ketchup, Salsa, Brown Sugar and cumin, mixing very well.
• Stir often.
• Cook on high for 3 hours, then switch to low for another two hours, well ahead of serving as it tastes even better the longer you allow the flavors to blend together.
• If I'm making them for a party, I make them early morning for that night or even the night before, cooking overnight in the crockpot.
• They will stay hot for a long time and you can just turn the crockpot back on a couple hours before serving.
• I taste them often as they're cooking and add more salsa and/or cumin to taste.
• We like to taste the cumin, but if you don't that's ok.
