What Do You Put In Your Baked Beans?

I live in South Texas where Chili is big. Chili is available in cans, with, or without beans, and in several heat ranges. If you like hot peppers, or prefer a cooler Chile its all on the store shelf. I like Chili, and sometimes I add Pork and Beans for a change. If you are busy all day, just mix the Beans and Chili in a Crock Pot. Leave it on low and your dinner will be ready when you are.

i usually just put an egg to my bake beans... that's all... sometimes, i put sausage or bacon as well... that really depends on my mood and what i want to eat... take care and have a nice day...

i buy Bush's brown sugar beans, I think they already got some of the spices that I use and the flavor is so much better than just regular pork and beans. I add brown sugar, bbq sauce, onion, garlic, bacon, and my spices. I am always ask if granny is making baked beans for christmas and thankgiving. My grand daughter can eat a bowl full

Yummy. I love baked beans. I put ground meat, mustard, syrup, and the about the samething that you use in yours.

Chopped onions, parmesan cheese, and mince beef :) Yummy!

What I add in my bake beans? Well I buy several cans of pork beans. First I strain the juice off the beans. Then I add a little white sugar, brown sugar, onion, bell pepper, syrup, barbeque sauce and honey. While that sit I fry some hamburger meat, drain the grease and add it. Every now and then I add celery or top it with a couple strips of bacon. Put it in the oven on 350 for about 45 minutes. Not trying to brag, but It is real good. I have a cousin who adds smoked sausage in her bake beans.

I make my baked beans differently every time. I always start out with pork and beans. I usually use brown sugar, mustard, bbq sauce, onions. Sometimes I put other things in their to. It just depends on what I have lying around. I do love eating baked beans no matter how they are prepared.

I just put some brown sugar and ketchup in them. I'm not a big fan of baked beans so I really don't make them often. My husband puts chopped up hot dogs and doritoes in his.

bacon, brown sugar, onion, ----- I think that is all. for some reason i have to be making them to remember what all I put in it. that is weird.

I have only ever had baked beans out of the tin which come in tomato, ham or BBQ sauce never had them with pork & onion and we normally eat baked beans by just making some toast heating up the baked beans and put them on top of the toast.

Sounds like you have a good recipe there. I add some molasses. Makes for very good, rich flavor. Lots of onions and some green peppers. Bacon,yes. Sausage or bacon but I wouldn't do both. And put it in a crock pot or pottery type cookery and let it slow cook awhile. Makes the flavors merge. Yum. Makes me hungry to think about it. My grandma used to fix this.

I, also, start with canned beans and I add ketchup, spicy brown mustard, black pepper, brown sugar and mustard. I bake them uncovered for at least 45 minutes so the sauce gets thick and yummy. My husband LOVES them!

That sounds lovely. I would never of thought to add this to baked beans. I love baked beans and eat them a lot, so I will try your recipe and let you know what I think but I bet it is really good.

What a great topic! I love baked beans and I like to add extra ingredients too. I love spicey food and so I usually add black mustard seeds, chopped green chillies and chopped white onions! It tastes extremely good!

hi my dear friend, i love beans and baked beans are one of fav items that i love to eat. i put chopped onions, tomatoes, a bit of garlic, a dash of lemon, grounded black pepper, and fat free yoghurt. my hubby love to add cheese or sometime butter also on top of it. i enjoy eating this with red hot chilli sauce. man, my mouth is watering , i wish i could eat it now. yummyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have actually never made my own baked beans. I rarely buy them either. The ones you make sound really good though. Except for the bell pepper. I don't like bell pepper's. I make something called Calico beans that has 4 different kinds of beans, sugar, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, bacon, and ground beef that sounds like it would be similar to what you make though.

Hi. singlemommy. The only things that I add into my baked beans would be, margarine and ground black pepper. Most of the baked beans that I usually buy already have, garlic, brown sugar, or maple sugar in it. It also has onions in it too.

That's pretty much what i put in it . I never tried brown sugar. Next time i try that. Sometimes i put little Weenies in the Beans.

MMM I'm coming over for dinner! LOL I start with baked beans and add chopped onion, brown sugar and a little bit of red hot sauce. Top with bacon and bake. I think I'll try your recipe out. Thanks for sharing!
