Boston Baked Pork and Beans

[@lordaleron2912]

I’m a New Englander and a Bay Stater, born and raised in New Bedford Massachusetts and I can’t wait to try this recipe.

[@robinj.9329]

This looks absolutely delicious! Very similar to the way my Mom taught me how to "Bake" a big pot of beans about 1958! As a Batchelor in the 1970's, I did these all winter! About once a week! EVERYONE just loved them.

[@alexanderk.3177]

Watched this episode again --- such a pleasure! Greetings from Houston TX! 😎🥂

[@danmcnaul]

I made this. Turned out delicious. The wife said it was the best meal she's had in years. I baked over night. The house smelled delightful in the morning like you described. Thanks for the post.

[@daa4309]

This was a fantastic recipe. The finished beans looked great. Thanks for sharing.😋😋

[@noreenhuff3161]

Thank you so much. I am from Boston but moved to Florida without my mom's recipe. I don't want to bother her because she is now 86. I'm a fan!

[@gardenglory6624]

awesome awesome video, will try to make this. thank you.

[@alvaromendez5737]

I'm Mexican and I just want to say that I'm going to add this to my meals because you my friend made it look grate thanks for showing us much love 💯💯💯

[@candelariosanchez273]

Alvaro Mendez I’m also mexicano but just love the outdoors and I cook quiet a bit out in the grill but have now great interest in cast iron cooking I’ve been cooking some recipes for some time with family when we go out camping just love it and this Boston recipe looks delicious I will be trying it out

[@kentallard8852]

would love to see a Mexican spiced twist to this

[@danshadbolt1292]

Not sure, but it looked like you poured in the bean soaking water or at least some of it. Soaking the beans causes the beans to release an enzyme which help protect the bean in its dry state. Soaking fools them into thinking it is spring and time to grow and they drop the enzyme. The enzyme causes gastric distress and gas. Throw the soaking water away. Rinse several times to get rid of all of the enzyme. You can then pre-boil the beans in any liquid you like. The beans will take up whatever flavor you use. You can use the boil water as stock, but not the soaking liquid. Great recipe by the way. Love it.

[@shadowpapito]

Good Job

[@philstorer2352]

Correct I always discard the soaking water and cover the beans with clean water, plus the soaking water is a bit cloudy. I use Navy beans as that is how I was taught. I have made a simialr recipe but I stick to the beans alone and smoke the meat separatly. My mother taught me to use a clay bean pot of which I have 3 sizes, salt port, molasses, salt, pepper and dry mustard is all that I use and they bake covered for 4 hours and uncovered for 2 more. That is me making a traditional non-fancy pot of beans. Everyone has a different way

[@simplesoup7138]

I have that exact same iron pot, it was my grandma's. I have made beans and pork roasts in it many times.

[@galupas]

Congratulations, that is bloody awesome and I'll use that method from now on, thank you!!

[@leedoss6905]

You need more subscribers. Done this same recipe for years and I'm from Texas.

[@ckhcvd6211]

dude ...can't wait to try this, um, um, um, um yum! a good way to prevent "spillage" is to mix 2+C. flour, sea salt(not sure what it does, but?) and water to make a fairly stiff dough, roll into a fat snake shape, wrap the dough around the edge of the pot, put lid on the dough, squish down gently and bake away. it forms a seal that keeps the juices "IN" the pot and not all over the oven. anyway just something I've learned along my path to 200 + lbs of jolliness and good will:) one thing to remember is to put enough liquid in at first because you'll not be able to lift the lid until finished. thanks for sharing

[@davidr.2633]

Why not just foil on the tray? Then throw the foil away ( or let the dog lick after it cools) and no cleaning up spillage.

[@hagensteele4447]

This southern boy is going to give this a try. Thanks for the upload.

[@jspeters88]

Just made this for the super bowl today in a number 12 Lodge dutch oven. Came out perfect, wish I could share a pic. The 10 lb. Pork butt didn't fit for me so I just cut it in half, and put the other half in a crock pot over night. I would add salt and some extra seasoning at the end of cooking. I seared the pork in the dutch oven to add some extra flavor. Love the videos. Thanks for the recipe.

[@johnwood551]

Great idea. I use my Dutch ovens all the time ,and especially camping . This would work great on a camping trip.

[@Jeff250lbc]

still brillant recipe thanks for sharing this

[@ronaldkearn6368]

Your a man after my own heart. :-) I am 5th generation in New England and Saturday baked beans are a tradition. Ma used to make brown bread in coffee cans, wish I had paid more attention to the way she made it. sorry to say the store bought ones don't taste the same. :-) By the way I have Ma's #9 Griswold Dutch Oven. Glad you told us about the oven temp. Been baking at to high a temp for years. :-)

[@davidr.2633]

Old school Griswold! Nice!

[@JayP-kd5rc]

Oh.............I have to have this. Grew up on Boston Baked beans as a New Englander, but never had them like this. Pork is my favorite roast. I do add quite a bit of pork and bacon when I bake beans, but have never seen it done like this. I will have to make this. Thank you! I always enjoy your videos, and have subscribed. Thanks.

[@suziequzie]

Oh, I want a pot like that! It's a beauty.

[@castironchaos]

Good luck!

[@kimberleerivera3334]

Thank you for the recipe and demonstration! Looks delicious! 😊

[@redtick79]

I cooked this New Years day, exactly to the recipe, and it turned out awesome. My wife is from Holyoke, Ma and it passed muster with her. I had to order a Lodge 7 QT dutch oven, as the as ones i have were too small. Good tip to put cookie sheets under the pot, as it tends to bubble over a little , during the cooking process.

[@castironchaos]

Happy New Year!

[@hidereplies1425]

the grunt was great, do it all the time to. i cook with cast iron also.

[@baghdaddy202003]

it was pretty molasses heavy for me so i added 1/4 cup vinegar extra and i juiced an orange in it. seemed to balance out for my personal preference that way. Its all on the smoker as i type this.

Glad you liked it. :)

[@zone4garlicfarm]

I have been adding sizable amounts of pork to my baked beans for several years, but never anything like a 10 pound shoulder. I usually add 2-3 country style ribs to 2 pounds of dried beans. I have also tried other meats including chicken leg quarters, beef pot roast, bear and venison. All are good but pork is best, closely followed by bear. In the winter I usually cook in a dutch oven on the wood stove overnight. In the summer when I don't want anything that makes the house hotter I cook my beans in the ground for at least 12 hours, sometimes longer. Either way is much better than canned pork and beans where the pork is just a small piece of fat.

[@gardenglory6624]

wow, how do you cook beans in the ground? incredible

[@zone4garlicfarm]

@@gardenglory6624 Type "bean hole" into youtube's search bar. There are plenty of demonstration videos.

I like your recipes and quick cooking instructions. I just got a beautiful cast iron Staub Dutch oven on Sunday for $40 at a yard sale. So far I have made chicken soup in it but I'm excited to make this recipe next.

Boston Baked beans, yummy! To each his own, but I don't enjoy a sweet or bbq flavored bean. Julia Childs has a tasty bean (non-crockpot) recipe. I find is closest to Mom's. Yup, that's right! Just made a batch with smoked ham hocks... no salt pork available (supply chain). Bacon is too expensive right now on my fixed income. The hocks increased the time involved but turned out well. I used a cast iron dutch oven, my ceramic is cracked. Finished the beans off with a baking technique I learned from America's Test Kitchen. Those gals rock. They added a splash of soy sauce. Regards

[@michaellmikeyymike]

excellent recipe, I really enjoy your cast iron cooking. my only question is, I wonder why you seared the pork in a separate pan as apposed to searing it in the pot you're baking it all in. it seems to me that there's a little bit of lost flavor in the second pan. but still a great recipe.

[@castironchaos]

Actually, you have a good point there - you could easily sear the pork shoulder in the big pot, then remove it from the pot and add the beans after searing the meat. Then you add the sauce and liquid, and finally place the pork back in, on top of the meat. It would certainly work that way.

[@michaellmikeyymike]

Thank you

[@MrClayDust]

[@MrShamus07]

@@castironchaos No offense intended, but that's kind of the point (but admittedly not the only one) of using a Dutch oven. All of the flavor from searing your meat remains in the dish being prepared.

Boston baked beans are made with salt pork.They donot contain tomatoes or worcestershire sauce. The meat can be bacon or ham (leftover) and a ham bone. Say the remains of a smoked shoylder. I am a native of New England for.my whole life. Crockpot baked beans are excellent.
