I used the plain cheap canned pork and beans; no need to spend money on the beans when you're making your own sauce. I cut the sugar in half, and it was still quite sweet. I also used about 6 slices of chopped bacon that I blended right into the beans. I let everything simmer on low in the crockpot for five hours, and it was great served with ribs and slaw for a BBQ.

This recipe would be considered semi-homemade which is how I make baked beans these days. I don't, however, use the semi-homemade baking recipes on allrecipes.com. It is a good basic recipe to follow while using some of the suggestions made by the other cooks.

I really love this recipe for baked beans, and you can change the recipe to your taste. I use a small ceramic dutch oven and chop and brown turkey bacon then add onion to saute for a while and deglaze the pan with the vinegar and worcestershire sauce. Then I mix all the other ingredients in the pan, mix, and throw it in the oven. I'm making it for the third time tonight because my guy has requested it to go with our Easter ham.

These were just ok for us. The sauce never really thickened and there wasn't as much flavor as I like. I prefer recipes where you cook the sauce on the stovetop and then add it to the bean mixture so you can sample the sauce as you go. Thanks for sharing!

Pretty good. I didn't really measure anything out, just sort of threw it together and I did add a few shakes of hot sauce and omitted the red wine vinegar. I threw it all in the crock pot and cooked on low a couple hours. Would make again.

Made the recipe as written. Everyone loved this but I thought it was a bit too sweet. Next time I will decrease the brown sugar.

Beans had a great flavor. I used only half the sugar and it was still a little too sweet for my taste. The reason for the four stars was mine turned out a little dry. Recipe did not say to cover with foil but I will next time.

Maybe I bastardized this recipe, but I cooked it on the stove and completely eliminated the bacon. Just dump everything together in a pot, stir well, cover but vent to let reduce, and let it go while you work on a simple main dish. Stir occasionally and in about 20 minutes you'll have some pretty tasty "baked" beans.
