I had a lot of baked beans when I was young but they were always canned
and I never developed a great appreciation for them. A couple times I have had home made baked beans and they were much better. Last month my son took me to a BBQ joint in Buffalo and they had beans that were incredible. Realizing how good they can be, I looked up some recipes and was all set to give them a try. I was planning to use a recipe that called for a pound of bacon. Today I had to go to a store to get some things for a pot luck family thing tomorrow and planned to get some bacon and some beans. I was surprised to find they did not have navy beans. They had pinto beans, kidney beans, black eye peas, yellow peas, green peas, several varieties of lentils, but now navy beans. Dang. I was looking forward to some good beans. |

I was looking forward to some good beans. This doesn't use navy beans. You might like it. Tip: When making a recipe like this, go shopping for Bacon Ends and Pieces. They are cheaper, thicker cut, meatier, and often smokier. COWBOY BACON BEANS - PIONEER WOMAN Ingredients " 4 cups dry pinto beans " 1 pound thick-cut bacon, cut into pieces " 2 whole green bell peppers, diced " 1 whole onion, diced " 1 cup brown sugar " 1/4 cup ketchup " 2 tablespoons mustard " 1 tablespoon chili powder, optional " 2 teaspoons salt, more to taste " 2 teaspoons black pepper, more to taste " 4 cloves garlic, minced Directions Rinse the beans under cold water, sorting out any rocks/particles. Set aside. In a heavy pot (cast iron), saute the bacon pieces until halfway cooked and the fat is rendered. Add the green peppers and onions to the pot and cook until starting to get brown, about 3 minutes. Add the beans and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, and then add the brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, chili powder, salt, pepper and garlic. Reduce the heat to a simmer, place on the lid and cook until the beans are tender and the liquid is thick 3 to 4 hours. Janet US |

I was looking forward to some good beans. Dried navy beans are hard to find here. If I can not find them, I will use the smallest white bean I can find. Or I will start with canned beans. I have used Great Northern or even pea beans. No difference in the end results. That being said, someone on another newsgroup told me years ago the secret to really good baked beans and that is to use a ton of caramelized onions. I find when I do that, I can cut back on the other sweeteners and the end result is out of this world! |

Although I wouldn't dislike that, if I want baked, I start with a lot of caramelized onions, a lot of bacon and then some molasses, ketchup, mustard, tons of freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste. The amount of ketchup and molasses I use would depend on how sweet the onions are. Sometimes I just use tomato sauce instead of ketchup. I do not use a lot of mustard. Just a touch. |

![]() > wrote in message ... >I just add some bbq sauce to pork and beans. I add chili powder to pintos >and red kidney beans. Sorry, but, ugh. I do actually like pork and beans although they are not my favorite form of beans. And I grew up eating baked beans that are made with them. My mom didn't cook a lot from scratch although she did make navy bean soup with dried bean. Her baked beans were good but I knew no different back then. Then I had baked beans at a potluck that were even better. The woman that made them showed me how she did it. She actually started with B & M baked beans and added more stuff to them. This is not how I like to cook! I won't say that I never do things like this because sometimes we just need a super quick meal and there isn't time to do more but... I would not do this with baked beans because I already know that they need to bake for hours and hours to be good. Even though my mom and the other lady started with a finished product, they still cooked their beans for many hours. I knew there had to be something better. When we moved to Cape Cod, I found dried beans called Buckeye. They looked like a larger black eyed pea but without that mealy texture. I followed the recipe for them that came on the package. Told me to cut through an onion but leave it intact, then put it in the pot, I guess so you got the flavor but not the actual onion in there. I did try it that way the first time but then couldn't bring myself to discard the onion like it said so I cut it up and mixed it in. The recipe also had an insane amount of sweet things in it but I wasn't diabetic back then. The end result was so delicious that I have been experimenting ever since. I prefer to make my baked beans with dried beans but as in my reply to Dave, I can't always find dried white beans when I need them so I may use canned but just plain beans. I have actually ordered navy beans online. They are just that hard to find, although I have a feeling that the new Winco will have them in bulk and I should get some the next time I go there. I have also made bean/corn chili. The original recipe calls for three different kinds of canned beans, a can of corn and a jar of salsa, dumped together and heated through. Although it is a tasty meal, it isn't to me what chili should be. I do doctor it up by adding chili powder and some other things. I also can't remember the last time that I made it. Husband and I will both eat it but daughter prefers what I think of as a more traditional chili with dark red kidney beans and ground beef. I realize that Texans will disagree and so will sf who likes pintos in her chili. I love pintos but unless I am making the quick recipe that I mentioned, I don't think they belong in there. Most of the time when we eat kidney beans, they are straight up from the can. And when I say this, I do not mean that I eat straight from the can, over the sink. I mean that I open the can, dish out and eat. I often put some on tossed salad. Or in a pasta salad. I just love the taste of them and they are probably my favorite bean. |

I don't know why they are so hard to find now but they sure are. I have to plan in advance if I want to make baked beans now because I can go to two or three different stores and come up empty. Then when I do find them, I can never remember where it was that I found them. |

How does that happen? That is the case here too, sf. Winco does sell bulk beans but I am not sure how many varieties. And Whole Foods has a good selection of bulk beans. But I have learned not to buy bulk ones unless I know they have a really good turnover. For years, I was given bulk beans and popcorn in my Christmas stocking and finally I told the giver to just stop! I suspect maybe the popcorn was the cause of my weevil infestation some years back. The food was just old! The popcorn didn't pop well and the beans took hours and hours to cook. The buyer was particularly fond of a large health food store that sells bulk things, but I flat out quit shopping there because much of their food is very old. When I buy bagged dried beans, I am finding a very paltry selection in most stores and have even had a hard time finding split peas at times. I guess there just isn't much of a demand for these things any more. |

I have only been to the new Winco a few times and only to the bulk section once. Due to the layout of the store, the bulk section seems rather closed off. At the Everett store there is plenty of room and you can easily get in and out of that section. But at the new one, the aisles have been teeming with people and if you do dare to go in there, you can't get out very easily. Will try to look next time I am there. |

My only experience with Goya is with canned beans. In a can, they have what they called "small white beans". They might also have them dried. I can't figure out what difference it might make which bean one uses, but then again I don't like beans very much. They all taste the same to me. I'll sometimes take a forkful or two of baked beans to be polite, but I try to swallow them ASAP without tasting them. Luckily I'm not in that position very often. When I do eat beans, I prefer them toothsome, although I'll put a can of Great Northern into a vegetable soup, and red lentils cooked to "pease porridge" consistency don't bother me. Cindy Hamilton |

Yellow eyed beans are good but are hard to find.

This is the time of year when there's a run on dried beans, winter in the north is soup making season... I couldn't find navy beans either but I did find great northerns, and the stock on the shelf was low. Next I'm at BJ's I will stock up, they sell dried beans in five pound bags. When I lived on Long Island I shopped at Compare Markets, they are heavy into Hispanic foods, they sell all sorts of beans in hundred pound sacks, rice too. I miss that store, their produce section was amazing... they catered to the Asian and Indian population too, they carried produce I didn't know what it was and had no idea how to prepare. http://comparesupermarkets.com/ |

Reasonably priced: http://shop.honeyville.com/small-whi...eans-25lb.html http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...r_1_32&sr=8-32 I paid $1.69/lb for store brand at my local market... but it cost me at least $2 for gas... Amazon is free shipping, Honeyville is $5 shipping on any size order, plus they got me for $20 worth of groceries I wouldn't have bought and really didn't need at the moment had I not been there. Twenty five pounds of dried beans is like a nothing if you're Hispanic... can always split it with a neighbor, that's what I did with 50 lb sacks of steel cut oats from Honeyville... I happen to have a neighbor who's a good Irish Catholic, has six kids and a slew of grands, she took half of my bag and another whole bag. |

Ditto birthdays, > appointments, dates I might forget etc. Birthdays stay the same. The stock that a store sells, changes frequently. Especially if those stores are Safeway and Albertsons. A list wouldn't help me there. |

Can you send me some beans too ? ;-) As is often the case with reading this group, I get a craving for the food being discussed. I see cowboy beans in the near future. I'm not clear on what you want -- is it the pinto beans or the cowboy beans? I'll send both, O.K.? ![]() Janet US |

Did the Irish neighbor with all the children and grands tell you they needed oats? I cannot think of any reason why you would buy 50 lb. sacks of steel cut oats.
