Best baked beans I ever tasted so I ask for her recipe:
Start with Bush's baked beans any variety (28 oz. size)
1/4 lb. hamburger per can (scramble fry in skillet)
green pepper 1/2 C. per can
onion 1/4 C. per can
tomato ketchup 1/4 C. per can
worshireshire sauce 3T. per can
dark brown sugar 1/4 C. per can
Bake @350 for at least 1 hour but 2 hours even better
You're heating them either on too high of a flame or not cooking them well enough. Truthfully, sometimes baked beans can be a bit soupy. If you want them to be more wholesome/chunky you can add chunks of meat, brown sugar, or even bacon to the mix.
A lot of times they will end up soupy when you first add the other ingrediants. Cook them at a low-slow simmer for a couple of hours sirring every so often to let the beans really absorb flavor and also to let some of the liquid reduce.
I start off with a can of pork and beans, add bacon, cooked onions red and green bell pepper, mustard, brown sugar, ketchup, and a little pepper.
You can even put them in a covered casserole dish in the oven at a low setting and stir them every 30-45 min. Or like I said, put them on the stove top and simmer for a while.
Bean Casserole
1/2 pound sliced bacon, diced
1/2 pound ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
1 can (28 ounces) pork and beans
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) lima beans
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
In a large skillet, cook bacon, beef and onion until meat is no longer pink and onion is tender; drain.
Transfer to a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish; add all of the beans and mix well. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir into beef and bean mixture. Cover and bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Uncover; bake 15 minutes longer. Yield: 12 servings.
THIS turns out perfect all the time!!
