Granny’s Baked Beans

Every family has someone who’s famous for that one recipe. In my family it’s my granny and its definitely her baked beans. These famous baked beans are present at all of our family gatherings including my wedding! Everyone who eats these raves about them. I was blessed to have Granny come over and show me all her secrets which I am now sharing with you all! I will warn you though, if you take these baked beans to your next gathering you will unofficially become the baked bean person. Which, actually might not be a bad thing considering these are so simple to make!

When making these baked beans you should use a smaller roaster than what I used. I am on an extreme budget so I just used what I had on hand. It worked ok but the smaller roaster would have been much better. Also, adding the bacon and hot dogs to the baked beans last is a very important step, if you don’t the bacon will become very soggy. I guess if you prefer soggy bacon you could do it this way, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

If you plan on making these baked beans for a crowd I would plan on doubling this recipe. In my opinion, it’s always better to have a little left over than not enough. Plus, when you make a recipe as delicious as these baked beans you will want some left overs to munch on for later.
