Tips:
- Start with dry beans. Dried beans are more flavorful and economical than canned beans. You'll need to soak them overnight before cooking, but it's worth the extra step.
- Use a variety of beans. Don't just stick to one type of bean. Try using a mix of different beans, such as pinto beans, kidney beans, and black beans. This will give your baked beans a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't skimp on the brown sugar. Brown sugar is what gives baked beans their characteristic sweet and smoky flavor. Be generous with it! Use a dark brown sugar for even more flavor.
- Add some spices. Spices like chili powder, cumin, and paprika will add warmth and flavor to your baked beans. Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices to find a combination that you like.
- Cook the beans low and slow. Baked beans should be cooked low and slow so that the flavors have time to develop. Aim for a cooking time of at least 8 hours. You can cook them in the oven or in a slow cooker.
