#october2026 I am impressed with the variety of baked bean recipes in circulation. When I was a kid, baked beans was a can of pork and beans with a bit of brown sugar and yellow mustard cooked most often in a pot on the stove. If mom wanted to impress she put bacon on top and baked the beans in the oven!
