Рецепт Baked Beans
For years I’ve been looking for a baked beans recipe to make that I like and have yet to find one. I’ve scoured the internet, cookbooks, and even asked friends, and nothing. The other day I did make a recipe that I liked but it’s still lacking something.
Have you ever been to Bandana’s BBQ? I love their baked beans and apparently they use a couple cans of beans and then doctor them up. If you have that recipe please share it with me, I’d love it.
The recipe that I made the other night was tasty and I’m hoping that they’ll taste that much better when I reheat them after freezing the leftovers. I combined several different recipes together all very similar but each had something extra added. I’d like the sauce on this to be a bit thicker and heartier. One recipe called for adding in ground beef – I opted to leave that out since I wasn’t looking for a meal on baked beans. Some included vinegar and others bbq sauce or ketchup. After pulling them altogether, this is what I came up with.
While very tasty I was really looking for the Bandana’s version. If you’re looking for a homemade or doctored up recipe for Baked Beans you might try these. However, if you have a recipe like Bandana’s or one that you think will knock my socks off please share it with me. I LOVE baked beans.
