GRANDMA BROWN'S BEANS



Grandma Brown's Beans image

Grandma Brown's canned baked beans are available in the northeast USA but not common elsewhere. They are very simple with only 6 ingredients named on the can. This is a process to recreate them faithfully. Note that these beans are not tomato based, they are thick not saucy, and they are only mildly sweet. The final product either from the can or from the recipe is easily modified to your taste by adding bacon, tomato ketchup, brown sugar, spices. But they are great the way they are. They taste like beans!

Almost Like Aunt Jackie's Baked Beans image

My Aunt Jackie used to make THE BEST baked beans whenever we had a family gathering. She'd actually "doctor" canned baked beans by adding brown sugar, ketchup, molasses, mustard, onion, garlic, and LOADS of bacon.

OLD FASHIONED FRENCH CANADIAN BAKED BEANS



Old Fashioned French Canadian Baked Beans image

This was a staple for me growing up in Quebec and brings back many happy memories. A perfect winter comfort food!!! I have tweaked an original recipe and wanted to share it with you. Great at breakfast with fried egg and sausage. A hearty meal with crusty bread and salad. It takes some time but well worth the wait -- I hope you enjoy them. Special note: some people prefer using salt pork when preparing baked beans - I use sliced bacon instead.
