Stovetop Baked Beans by Jeff Turner


6-15 OZ can Pork & Beans
2 LBS Bacon
1 tsp Pureed Onion
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 box Dark Brown Sugar
2 1/2 TBSP Molasses


Open the large can Pork & Beans, remove the nasty pieces of fat, and drain the excess juices (in colander to drain). Cut bacon into 1/8 to 1/4 inch slivers, and fry to just less than crispy. While the bacon is frying, and the beans are draining, place all the other ingredients in large pot on low heat to melt & mix together. Add the beans when drained, and bacon when done. Keep heat low to medium and occasionally stir until they are thoroughly heated.

NOTE; add no salt as the bacon will do that for you.

I will never forget Grandma Shaw always had to have the baked beans, because Jeff loved them so well. This is still true today, and this is the way she fixed them. This makes a very large batch. However, the excess can be frozen in single serving sizes for later meals.
