New England Baked Beans - Good Enough to Eat Cold image

I LOVE picnics & sometimes I go to areas where I can't heat up anything. Chicken is good cold, so why not beans? I finally got my recipe for slow cooked beans just right. I love them cold, almost better than if they came straight out of the crock pot. I hope all that try these agree. I welcome comments & new suggestions.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1/2 cup, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (16 ounce) cans pork & beans, drained & rinsed
1 small onion, chopped (I like Vadalia best)
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 tablespoons dark molasses
1/4 lb fully cooked bacon, sliced 1-inch pcs. (I don't recommend bacon bits)
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Be sure to drain and rinse the beans. You can spray the crock pot with a small bit of Pam if you wish or use a non-stick pot.
  • Mix all ingredients in crock pot and slow cook on low for 2-3 hours, stirring now and again. Or on low heat for 1 hour on stovetop.
  • It is important to slow cook these beans for at least an hour so the sauce thickens to the beans.
  • You can use other types of beans, I have used Northern, Mexican (adding a bit of chili powder in the recipe), & Pinto.
