Mary Anns Hoosier Baked Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat an oven-proof heavy-bottom pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, until the fat has started to render and the bacon is beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and bell pepper and continue to cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the canned beans, barbecue sauce, molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire, brown sugar, mustard powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the pot to the oven and bake (uncovered) until the sauce thickens and the beans on top begin to brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place the dried mushrooms in a medium bowl and cover with 2 cups boiling water, make sure each mushroom is submerged. Let steep for 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer, reserving the liquid. Roughly chop the steeped mushrooms and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell peppers and chopped mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika and cayenne and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomato puree, bourbon, molasses, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, bring to a simmer and cook to combine, about 3 minutes. Add the beans, vegetable broth and reserved mushroom liquid. Raise the heat to high, bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. Cover the pot, transfer to the oven and bake until the beans are tender, about 3 hours.
• Uncover and increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until the sauce thickens and the beans on top begin to brown, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a plate with a paper towel. In a saute pan over medium heat, add the bacon. Cook until tender and cooked but not crisp, flipping once, about 8 minutes. Remove to the paper-towel lined plate. Let cool and then chop.
• To the pan with the bacon drippings, add the onion and cook until tender, soft and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• To a large bowl, add the baked beans, molasses, dark brown sugar, barbecue sauce and bacon mixture. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and bake, uncovered, for about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the bacon to a large skillet and fry over medium heat until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and remove all but 4 tablespoons bacon fat from the skillet.
• Add the beans, ketchup, molasses, brown sugar, dry mustard and onions to an 8-by-8-inch casserole dish. Add in the bacon fat from the skillet. Lay the reserved bacon strips on top of the bean mixture. Bake until heated through, 30 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Place the beans in a large bowl and cover with cold water by 1-inch and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight. Drain and rinse the beans and then drain again.
• Place the beans in large pot with 2 quarts water, the onion, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 50 minutes, or until tender. A good test is to scoop up several beans in a spoon and blow on them: if the skin starts to peel off, they're done. Drain the beans, reserving the cooking liquid.
• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, ketchup, chili paste, ginger, salt, and 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid, still reserving the remaining liquid. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes.
• Transfer the beans to a medium Dutch oven or a bean pot. Push half the bacon into the beans and place the rest on the top. Pour the maple syrup sauce over the beans. Place the lid on top and bake for 6 to 8 hours. Check occasionally; if the beans are too dry, add 1/2 cup more of the cooking liquid. If you like, you can remove the lid for the last 30 minutes to thicken the sauce. Discard the bay leaf. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Mix all ingredients in large deep casserole dish. Bake until beans are golden brown, about 2 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Wash and clean the beans, then place them in a bowl and cover with water. Let soak overnight, adding more water if necessary. Drain the beans and wash again. Put beans in a saucepan, cover with fresh water, and bring to a boil. Boil until the beans are soft, then drain, reserving the broth. Layer the beans, onions, sugar, diced bacon square and all other ingredients in a bean pot or ovenproof dish, adding bean broth to bring beans to desired consistency. Bake uncovered for 5 to 8 hours, stirring occasionally. If beans seem to be getting too brown, put on cover while baking.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place bacon and onions in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.
• In a large bowl combine beans, molasses, mustard, salt, tomatoes, brown sugar, dry mustard, ham, onions and crumbed bacon. Mix well and transfer to a 2 quart casserole dish.
• Bake in preheated oven, covered, for 1 hour. Uncover and bake for 1 hour more.
