Now this is something we DON'T get down here... I love baked beans. Putting NAVY beans on my grocery list.. (Grandson is in Navy) LOL


Yum! I LOVE homemade baked beans! Nothing wrong with spreading bacon slices over the top for the last hour of baking without the cover. Thanks for this deliicious recipe!


It is a not very sweet baked bean recipe. For my taste you can leave out the 1t salt because it did turn out with a little salty taste.

Was at the store to buy some salt pork and right next to it was some already cut up salt pork with some meat attached to it, so I decided to use that instead of the block salt pork.
