Old Fashioned Baked Beans With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 10 cups water and navy beans to a boil in a large pot; cook at a boil for 2 minutes. Stir bacon, onion, brown sugar, molasses, and salt into the water.
• Carefully pour the mixture into a slow cooker.
• Cook on High, stirring occasionally, for 4 hours.
• Stir 3 cups water into the mixture. Continue cooking until beans are tender, about 2 hours 15 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, bring beans, salt and 2 qt. water to a boil; boil for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; let stand for 1 hour. Drain beans and discard liquid. Return beans to pan. Cover with remaining water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until beans are tender. Drain, reserving liquid. In a greased 2-1/2 qt. baking dish, combine beans, 1 cup liquid, onion, molasses, bacon, brown sugar, mustard and pepper. Cover and bake at 325° for 3 to 3-1/2 hours or until beans are as thick as desired thickness, stirring occasionally. Add more of the reserved cooking liquid if needed.

Steps:

• 1. Soak beans overnight in cold water at room temperature adding 2 inches of water above. Twelve (12) hours later, drain and transfer in a large pot. Cover with cold water, add sea salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 40 minutes or until tender. Drain but SAVE THE LIQUID. Transfer back to the large pot and set aside.
• 2. Meantime, in a mixing bowl combine molasses, brown sugar, prepared mustard, dry mustard, baking soda and black pepper; stir and set aside. Take 1 slice of bacon and rub the sides of the interior bean pot. Cut bacon slices into pieces. Place half (4 pieces) of onion at the bottom of the pot.
• 3. Pour sauce over the beans and mix to coat. Add bacon pieces, stir and pour half of the bean mixture into the bean pot over the onion pieces. Add the remaining onion pieces and pour the remaining sauce; add more black pepper and the remaining ¼ cup of molasses; stir just the top to spread molasses evenly. Pour the reserved liquid enough to cover the bean mixture. Place lid and transfer into a 325ºF preheated oven for 6 hours.
• 4. Every hour, check and add more reserved liquid if needed. The last hour, pour liquid to cover and uncovered to darken the beans.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Heat 10 cups water and the beans to boiling in ovenproof Dutch oven. Boil uncovered 2 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients except 3 cups water.
• Cover and bake 4 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in 3 cups water. Bake uncovered 2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes longer, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender and desired consistency.

Steps:

• Soak beans overnight in cold water. Simmer the beans in the same water until tender, approximately 1 to 2 hours. Drain and reserve the liquid.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Arrange the beans in a 2 quart bean pot or casserole dish by placing a portion of the beans in the bottom of dish, and layering them with bacon and onion.
• In a saucepan, combine molasses, salt, pepper, dry mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil and pour over beans. Pour in just enough of the reserved bean water to cover the beans. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake for 3 to 4 hours in the preheated oven, until beans are tender. Remove the lid about halfway through cooking, and add more liquid if necessary to prevent the beans from getting too dry.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• In a medium bowl, combine the tomato paste, sorghum, dry mustard, vinegar, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Slowly stir in the beer. Add the beans plus enough of their reserved cooking liquid to create a slightly soupy texture. Combine, and taste for salt, adding a bit more if necessary. Reserve the remaining bean cooking liquid. Transfer the mixture to a shallow baking dish and top with the bacon. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the bacon is golden brown and the beans are very hot, checking several times and adding a little more liquid or water if necessary so that the beans don't dry out; they should remain a bit saucy.
