This is a PERFECT tutorial. I was not sure if I should get a slow cooker, but when you said it does not heat up the whole kitchen, AND saves energy, you had me. WELL DONE sir. If you were single, I would chase you until you caught me.....
My grandmother called it “Counting Beans”. She had us grandkids go though the beans not so much to cull the beans but to take out any rocks/stone that may be in the bag ... she didn’t want anyone biting into them.
The way I do the cleaning process will speed up your time: wash the beans thoroughly then put them in a bowl or pot of cold water covering the beans about three inches. Stir the beans with your hand and the bad beans will float to the surface, that's it simple. Rinse the beans again and you are done. Also about the foam. Skip skimming it off because when you rinse the beans at the cooling process right before you put them in the crock pot it will rid the beans of the gases. There, I saved you some serious time. God bless you and thanks for a great vid! Also, I put in turkey bacon cup up, but you could use port bacon for an even greater flavor. Cheers!
Hi Dan, thank you for your timely response ... I do agree with you and based on the other comments ... I do believe the way the dish turned out is definitely on me. I believe the molasses I used was heavier (more potent) than the one you used. We did end up rescuing the dish with tomato paste, more sugar & tomato paste. Thanks Dan & keep up the good work. Again, sorry if if I complained too much at my own folly, Lol
You must be psychic Dan, I was thinking about making baked beans in the near future ( I've never made them before). Great looking beans! I will give this recipe a try. Thank you so much for the upload, so good to see you :)
Thank you so much! I received a slow cooker for a wedding gift and never use it. Now it is quarantine time with this pandemic, I will try this recipe. :) All the best from Toronto!
Hi dan! I am a new subscriber and so far I love our videos! I had my mom help me make a lot of your recipes and we had most of them for dinner. It was really delicious! Great job dan! I also have an idea on what you can make. You should try breakfast pizza. Thanks for listening! 😊
Thank you for the great tutorial. I made the America's Test Kitchen baked beans and they came out hard. So, I will try your version. ?? Are these slightly sweet or a medium sweet? My mom always put some brown sugar in hers but not too much.
If you add a teaspoon of baking soda to the soaking water it also helps get rid of the musical quality of the beans, and you are spot on about dumping the water.
Thanks for this video! My beans have been cooking for 3+ hours and look nothing like baked beans. Your video calmed my nerves and reminded me to just be patient! Thanks.
Great Vlog, I learned a lot of good info. Actually, you have caused me a problem LOL. Now my head is buzzing with other additions I can add to suit other tastes/cultural or religious preferences like chilli, chorizo, bacon, or other preserved type meats (for meat eaters) also herbs, but you have given me enough info to make preservative/additive-free healthy food, that anyone will love. Good work buddy.
The majority of the carbohydrates responsible for intestinal distress leach out into the *soaking* water overnight, so that is the only water you should throw away. The carbohydrates responsible for nutrition remain in the beans and the *cooking* water, but the intestines have no problem digesting those. Yes, that cooking liquid is valuable to the flavor and texture of the finished dish.
You've got exactly the right voice and accent. If you could do (or re-do) your cooking episodes as John Candy's "Uncle Buck", you might really have a hit. I like this recipe, by the way. Thanks!
oh thank you so much for telling us to dump the cooking water, it's been years since I made bean cause after a plate i was so sick to my stomach, so I will try your way tomorrow :)
Excellent tutorial. You’re fantastic! I appreciate your informative yet no nonsense approach, I learned plenty from this. It was easy to follow and interesting to watch. I could watch you cook beans all day long 😊 Please share any new beans recipes you may have. They are a labour of love. Have you ever considered cooking beans in a pressure cooker?
@@danrt50 thanks for the link! Do you have a preference in quality or taste with slow cook vs instant pot? also have you ever used this recipe using the slow cooker mode on the instant pot? Im curious as Im trying to decide whether to invest in a slow cooker or not. 🤔
Hi Dan, great recipe, generally I soak my beans over night with hot water and a tablespoon of baking soda. next day rinse them boil them and throw away the first water, later that I will slow cook ´em
I have Mustard Seed but no Dry Mustard will this work? Or should I use regular mustard in the jar? Also, can these be cooked in a pot on the stove? I don't have a crock pot. I hope you get back to me soon cuz I'm going to make this for Sunday lunch. Thank you.
OKAY. I just made them~! I love your advice and I know it's true about getting rid of that water to get rid of the gas. Anyhow, I made it but put it in a 250" oven (rather than in a slow cooker) after cooking the beans until they "cracked. " Also added 1/2 c. organic ketchup, 1 TBL. Worcestershire sauce, 1 TBL. liquid smoke and 1/8 tsp. each of ground cloves and ground allspice as well as about 3 TBL. maple syrup to the recipe, leaving out the onions and garlic. Cooked in oven for 6 hours but they probably were ready way before that, like after 4 hours. Oh, and I left out the onion and garlic in memory of my Dad, who used to make Boston Baked Beans for us but never put in onion or garlic because he hated onions. (Love onions myself~!) Everything else I did exactly as you said to do and thank you so much. It was really, really hard to find good advice on how to make baked beans. I also don't eat pork and am on a salt-free and oil-free diet, so this worked out perfectomundo. I looked at more baked beans cooking videos and no longer think you are in the top 3. I think you are the BEST...! :) I also TOTALLY AGREE that zero salt is needed in this recipe!
I watched a few baked beans videos and I think I am going to try the americas test kitchen version today with left over bbq chicken thighs that i will remove the bone from and add extra salt too, anyway thats what is on hand we will see what happens. Wish i had some left over pork instead but today it has to be bbq chicken thigh.
Love This!! I couldn’t survive off anything else- when my family left me and the 18 cats on the streets we’ve had to live off these- just me, backed beans and 18 of my lovely cats 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😆😆!!!! Couldn’t be more content with my LIFE!! 🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩😗🤪🤪🤨🤨🤨🤪🤨🤨🥰🥰😍😍🥰😍😍
I realize this video is a couple of years old but I just found it. Have you ever cooked the beans on a grill instead in a slow cooker? Seems like they would really be good with a smoked flavor.
lol. I don't think I've ever manually inspected my beans for defects. Nice recipe though. I like to use kidney beans, ketchup, onion, honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, pork belly, dry mustard powder and garlic.
that inspecting went out with better handling from the field, better combines and cleaning fans and sorting machines. even soaking has went out., just put them on the stove, bring them to a boil, cover and let set until cool, about an hour.
I noticed that you didn't add any meat or hotdogs, would you recommend waiting halfway through the time it takes to cook the beans to have hotdogs. I wouldn't want to cook a hotdog for four hours.
hotdogs are pre-cooked mostly so the only time you'd be looking at would be to reheat to your preference, so probably 20-30 before the beans are ready is when you'd put them in
Your baked beans from Jul 11, 2016 you tube video, you did not have any ketchup in it, and that looks like a lot of molasses. If I would make I would cut back, it takes over the taste too strong. I enjoyed the video
clean the beans one time and that is it!!!!!!!!!!! if you keep boiling and rinsing again and again you taking the most important from the beans... i do boil beans to the maximum and drink...
Yeah, but what he is doing takes the gas out. Some people have a lot of trouble with the gas from beans, although I hear that if you eat beans regularly your digestive system will stop passing gas from them!

As will I, stay safe from Windsor, ON. Recipe looks great!
I cook mine in pressure cooker for 25 mins and they turn out great. then i add all my ingredients then cook alittle while longer.

NICE! Salt-free and oil-free as well. YES. I've been looking at a LOT of baked beans recipes on UA-cam. Yours is one of the BEST...top 3 for sure!
Great video
I always fail miserably with beans. I am going to try this. ty.

And can cook about 1 hr under pressure saving on the electric bill too.
Great job! Thanks!

Excellent production and informative. Would a ham hock or soup bone be worth adding?
I've never gone through my beans and I've never died or bitten into a rock.
I luv your vids keep it up Dan . :)
Thank you for the video.

Was just thinking last night about where you've been haha
Nice video keep it up😄
I'm definitely making these tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe 😊
I have 2 crock pots of your beans going now😊

i do have an instant pot one yea, but i prob should redo it and take out the meat: ua-cam.com/video/CB87C0Kwe7U/v-deo.html

@@squidoolybops7004 the instant pot i have has a slow cooker function so getting one wouldn't be necessary, depending on the type you have.
thx I love beans
It is going to be cold here tomorrow (Rochester NY) a smart dish to make
Great video....wondered if you considered putting in bacon for seasoning?
Thank you, AND for not loading vid with irritating music:)

If you add about 1+1/2 tablespoons salt to the overnight soak water it softens the skins.
YES
I wanted to ask if you could maybe show us a recipe for homemade onion rings?
Great recipe ..thanks for sharing...anyone ever tell you ,you sound just like the late John candy?
I slow cook beans and pork for 9,000,000 hours to perfection!
cheer up! make more vdos!!
Thank you Good. Instructions
Making them tonight
Hi Dan. Where did you purchase the sink strainer and spoon strainer?
Canadian Tire hardware store, but I think you can get them on Amazon too
DELICIOUS!!!!😊😊😊😊
You are one of the best teacher.
while boiling put a little baking sota in the beans it helps let the gasses out of the bean.
You sound like Phillip Seymour Hoffman. Hilarious.
What is Fancy Molasses? Never heard of them here in UK
black treacle should do it
lol. I don't think I've ever manually inspected my beans for defects. Nice recipe though. I like to use kidney beans, ketchup, onion, honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, pork belly, dry mustard powder and garlic.
that inspecting went out with better handling from the field, better combines and cleaning fans and sorting machines. even soaking has went out., just put them on the stove, bring them to a boil, cover and let set until cool, about an hour.
Not to be picky but where is the salt pork and brown sugar? I'm used to the Boston baked beans recipe that has those things added.
Awesome recipe. But you need to tell Steven Wright jokes while your doing it. Mind blown!
Looks good, but no hunk of back fat or bacon?
Hi Dan, I need to purchase a new 8.5 Quart Crockpot, any suggestions
looks like we got a bean stickler here...........
im just looking for the canned yet not caned baked beans
I noticed that you didn't add any meat or hotdogs, would you recommend waiting halfway through the time it takes to cook the beans to have hotdogs. I wouldn't want to cook a hotdog for four hours.
hotdogs are pre-cooked mostly so the only time you'd be looking at would be to reheat to your preference, so probably 20-30 before the beans are ready is when you'd put them in
What no bacon ? Pretty light in color. I never pre cook my beans and they never come out crunchy. I just pre soak overnight and rinse .
Your baked beans from Jul 11, 2016 you tube video, you did not have any ketchup in it, and that looks like a lot of molasses. If I would make I would cut back, it takes over the taste too strong. I enjoyed the video
No brown sugar Dan??
no, i use molasses instead, to each his own, it's a matter of taste
98,000 views? Must be doing something right ✅🤔.
Pork?
clean the beans one time and that is it!!!!!!!!!!!
if you keep boiling and rinsing again and again you taking the most important from the beans...
i do boil beans to the maximum and drink...
Yeah, but what he is doing takes the gas out. Some people have a lot of trouble with the gas from beans, although I hear that if you eat beans regularly your digestive system will stop passing gas from them!
Good tip that frothy equals gas
Can I use pinto beans?
This would be a healthy recipe if not for the molasses.
Look into the bean protocol.
Where's the
the im trying real hard not to swear the normal baked beans
