I've finally succumbed! \u00a0After being called out about going the easy way out with my Dutch Oven Baked Beans<\/a>, I've finally taken a stab at making them from scratch, rather than relying on cans of pork of beans.<\/p>\n

The result? \u00a0Pretty darn good. \u00a0Better than using cans of pork and beans? \u00a0Probably.<\/p>\n

The time committment is more, although the extra time required is in soaking the beans overnight and then simmering them for a 2-3 hours, neither of which take a ton of oversight. \u00a0 I'll admit that there is a certain appeal in cooking my Dutch oven baked beans from scratch, but there are times when I don't have time or want to deal with doing them from scratch.<\/p>\n

\"BeansIn reality, I usually don't use just cans of pork and beans, like my previous recipe said. \u00a0I double the recipe and add extra cans of various kinds of beans, like black beans, northern beans, and chili beans. \u00a0It gives some variety and makes the baked beans dish much better, in my opinion. \u00a0 \u00a0I need to update that recipe to show exactly what I do now.<\/p>\n

Back to making these baked beans from scratch. \u00a0Here's what I did: I started with 1 pound of northern beans, put them in a bowl, covered them with water, added some salt, and let them soak overnight.<\/p>\n

In the morning, I drained the beans, added them to a pot and covered them with water (4\" above the beans). \u00a0I brought the beans to a boil, and then simmered them until the beans were tender. \u00a0That took me about 1 1\/2 to 2 hours. \u00a0I probably could have cooked them a bit longer. \u00a0If the beans start to burst, they are done and you can remove them from the stove and drain. \u00a0Note that I could have done this part in my Dutch oven, but didn't--I cheated! \u00a0But a Dutch oven would be perfect for this type of thing because it holds heat well. \u00a0You would just have to keep feeding it charcoal.<\/p>\n

While the beans were cooking, I cooked up some bacon, let it cool, and crumbled it up. I chopped up 1 cup of onions and minced 1 clove of garlic and added them to the pan used to cook the bacon. Cook until the onions are done. \u00a0After the beans were cooked and tender, it was time to get the Dutch oven ready to go. \u00a0I started some charcoal, poured the beans, onions, and garlic into a bowl, and added the following:<\/p>\n

\"Dutch2 cups ketchup
\n1\/2 cup molasses
\n1 cup brown sugar
\n1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
\n1 tbsp yellow mustard
\n1 tsp chili powder
\n1\/2 tsp paprika
\n1\/2 tsp salt
\n1\/8 tsp mustard powder
\n1\/4 tsp cumin
\n1 tsp black pepper
\n1\/2 tsp garlic powder
\n1\/4 tsp cayenne<\/p>\n

I mixed all this up and then poured the mixture into my Dutch oven. \u00a0I put the Dutch oven on the briquettes that I had prepared, about 10 on the bottom, 14 on the top, and cooked until bubbling, about 1 hour.<\/p>\n

\"TangyI had my parents over for dinner and got their thoughts on this recipe. Everyone liked it! They were pretty tasty and I enjoyed making them from scratch. I'm planning on trying some other flavors, but this was a great start. The only thing I'd do differently was to cook the beans a little longer before adding them to the Dutch oven.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I hope you try these. Cooking them from scratch isn't really any harder, just takes a little bit more time. And the results are great.<\/p>\n
