Quicker Boston Baked Beans (Cook's Country) Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound dried navy beans (about 2 cups), picked over and rinsed
1 tablespoon baking soda
6 ounces salt pork , rind removed and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1 onion, chopped fine
3 cups water
5 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon molasses
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • *Liquids evaporate faster in the oven in heavy cast-iron Dutch ovens than in lighter pots. If you're using a heavy pot, increase the water to 4 1/2 cups. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Bring 3 quarts water, beans, and baking soda to boil in Dutch oven over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer briskly for 20 minutes. Drain beans in colander. Rinse beans and pot. Cook salt pork in now-empty pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 10 minutes. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in water*, beans, sugar, 1/4 cup molasses, Worcestershire, 1 tablespoon mustard, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and bring to boil. Cover, transfer to oven, and cook until beans are nearly tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove lid and continue to bake until beans are completely tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon molasses and remaining 1 teaspoon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve. (Beans can be refrigerated for up to 4 days.) TASTING NOTES: I have a personal preference for more sweet, than savory, when I eat Boston Baked Beans. I added about 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 cup brown sugar to the baked beans. That did it for me!

I added a little bit of chili powder to my beans for a little extra flavor. They turned out great!

I love that this recipe uses maple syrup instead of brown sugar. It gives the beans a nice subtle sweetness.

These beans are a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham leftover from Easter and Christmas, so I'm always looking for new ways to use it up.

I'm not a huge fan of baked beans, but I have to say, these are pretty darn good! The bacon and brown sugar add a nice sweetness to the beans.

I've tried many different Boston baked beans recipes over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. The beans are so flavorful and the sauce is thick and rich.
