When I make those, I add prepared yellow mustard, brown sugar, a dash or two
of hot sauce, red pepper flakes, bacon or ham cubes, and usually a cut up
onion. No real recipe, just to taste and the amount depends on the quantity
of the canned beans.

the yellow mustard sounds like a good addition. Should give it that
little bit of bite. thanks

I add Hillshire Farms original kielbasa to Bush's original baked
beans... I slice each kielbasa link into quarters and slow simmer them
for about an hour, dump the water to get rid of the nitrites and then
add the beans and let slow simmer for a couple hours... watch it
doesn't cook too hard or the casings will split.
You can do likewise with your favorite hotdogs/tube steak, we prefer
it with kielbasa. I'd not recommend bacon, that potent flavor is
overpowering.
It's limitless what can be added to canned baked beans, really up to
your taste... I've occasionally added cubed Velveeta along with the
kielbasa cut into coins and made it into a casserole, bake until all
ooey gooey melty.

I thought I was but I'm not. I do love bacon in baked beans though. And tons
of onions and black pepper.

same here and at least some of the onions tossed in at the very
end so they provide some crunch.

That's like killing a giraffe, cooking it with a carrot and calling

It is baked beans. Maybe not the traditional kind you are used to. IMHO they are WAY better that traditional baked beans. I like the different types of beans together, it is really good.

I add hickory smoke bbq sauce to pork and beans and they're yummy.

I like to add liquid smoke to my beans. I'll also add it to canned tuna salad. In the end, it pretty much tastes like adding barbecue sauce to the beans.

I'll agree with you on this one, Bruce.

US Janet, to Bush's Original baked beans, I add: yellow mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown
sugar, diced onion and a little sweet pickle relish. I don't measure...just eyeball it. When left to
simmer or bake in a low-temp oven for at least a half hour but preferably longer, the result is SO good!
And even better warmed up as "leftovers."

I love cold baked bean sandwiches. White bread, butter and chopped raw
onions. But I can't understand why someone would buy baked beans then Dr.
them up. I either eat them as they come from the can or I make my own. I
prefer my own. No real recipe. I do them to taste.

Right from the can is pretty lame and bland. I start with cans
and doctor them up...add in chopped onion, charred green peppers,
yellow mustard and powdered mustard, brown sugar. That's the
basics but you can also add bacon and even molasses.

If you like them dried out a bit and thicker, put in an uncovered
baking dish and bake for about an hour at 350f.

I've never made a sandwich out of baked beans but I see the
appeal. Once cooked, I do prefer eating them cold and thick
rather than warmed up.

Great with baked potato, mac salad and chunky applesauce. Add a
slice of buttered bread.

Me neither and I can't see the appeal.

My mother made lip-smacking baked beans and I've yet to produce
anything close although I watched her many times make them. She
always used leftover white beans (which for some reason weren't
cooked that often in our house). White sugar, chopped onion,
ketchup and/or a bit of barbecue sauce, and bacon on top of the
beans.

Maybe that's what I need as I don't keep ketchup in the house.
Anyway, everyone in the family still remembers her baked beans
and they were just a bit 'saucy' not runny but not dry either.

Much quicker than dried beans, plus canned are perfectly cooked. I no
longer bother with dried beans, every kind of bean is available
canned, and when purchased in the larger cans actually costs less than
dried. Lately I've looked at dried beans and their prices are a
shocker, a pound of baby limas were $2.39. The only dried legumes I
buy are peas for pea soup... whole dried peas make a superior soup to
split peas when I can find them... yellow peas make a fine soup too,
add a few ham hocks, much better than bacon.
I doctor canned baked beans all the time, one of my favorites is to
fry a couple thick slabs of bologna and pour in a can of baked beans
to heat and reduce some liquid... hobo steak n' beans.
And I often use an assortment of canned beans to prepare a 3-4-5 bean
salad... a whole lot quicker than cooking several kinds of dried
beans.

Perfectly overcooked. That's fine in soup, but not desirable
in salad. Which is why I use frozen black-eyed peas for
Texas Caviar.

BS!! Canned beans are pressure cooked to the consistency of PABLUM!

I like my beans to be a bit El Dente, or having a bit of bite to them. Not be mush!

Ive made the Paula Deen recipe for €œSouthern Baked Beans€� and everyone
liked it. I think I might have subbed molasses for the maple syrup,
however. And I pre-cooked the bacon. Either way, I dont think you could
go wrong.

I MAKE my own!! Starting with dried beans, I soak them first, then drain cook water, add fresh recipe-water, tomato paste, beef bouillon, black pepper, sweet paprika, cayenne, brown sugar, sorghum, bay leaves and bacon and ONIONS browned in the bacon fat!

YUM!! And **** THE CAN! It's called COOKING!

Haven't made it yet. I'll get a couple of large cans of Bush beans
(as plain as I can get them) also a can or so of plain cooked beans
and from there just add molasses, garlic, onion, bell pepper, bacon,
mustard and maybe some Sweet Baby Rays or something tomatoey. I'll
taste as I go. I'll put the pan of beans in the smoker along with
whatever I am smoking that day. Don't know yet. Company is coming.
Maybe serve with corn salad, rolls, iced tea/beer. I don't know. Cold
melon slices for dessert. One meal down and 5 more to go.

I like the Bush baked beans with maple flavored bacon.
