This is an easy recipe for the best ever baked beans. It does take time but most of it you aren't really doing anything. If you have an instant pot the time is cut in 1/4 :-) those directions will be at the end.
Ingredients:
navy beans - I usually use a pound of dry beans at a time and this recipe reflects that. Adjust as necessary
1/2 lb beef (ground, leftover steak, brisket, etc) cooked
1/2 pound bacon cooked and diced
1 cup onion diced
1/4 cup peppers (if you want and you can use any type of peppers based on your taste)
2 cups beef broth (I prefer natural home made but you can use low sodium store bought)
1 cup brown sugar
1 8oz can tomato paste or 1 15 oz can tomato sauce
1/4 cup molasses
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp liquid smoke
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Soak beans overnight. Rinse and place in a baking pan. Add all other ingredients and mix well. Bake at 350 for 45 mins to an hour (test doneness at 45 min and cook up to 1 hour 30 mins until beans are soft).
Serve and enjoy
Instant pot directions:
Sort and rinse beans. Add all ingredients to instant pot and set for 30 minutes. Test beans when done venting. If more time is needed set for 15 mins at a time. Make sure pot is sealed at beginning and vents naturally.
If beans too soupy simmer til liquid absorbed.
NOTES: I use BBQ sauce in stead of ketchup and sometimes in place of half the tomato sauce.
A blog to share my recipies. Edit to your taste as I tend to go spicy. Also, please be aware I am not a chef not do I claim to be one. I just love to cook and most love to eat my food.
Why am I doing this?
Several people have been asking me to give them copies of my recipes for certain dishes and asking me to make them other dishes, so I decided to create a blog with my recipes. Feel free to use any of these and edit them to your taste.
Disclaimer
I am now back in TEXAS so some recipes will be updated to show local ingredients. However, the below disclaimer is still true...I have created all these through trial and error.
All of these recipes have been made by me (or my family and revised by me) prior to me moving to Hawaii. However, since I have been in this beautiful state I have been able to buy fresher and more varied ingredients to revise these recipes to allow for a new twist on old favorites. If you do not have fresh ingredients available please use what you do have, or in most cases I have listed options, to create your own special everyday meal.
