I'll post my mom's Boston Baked bean recipe later when I get home. It's a family recipe, she was raised 30 miles from Boston.

I have had the famous baked beans from the Union Oyster House in Boston many times but failed at duplicating them. Looking forward to seeing your mom's recipe.

I've never had those and really never had any Boston Baked Beans other than mom's so I don;t know how they would compare. It is a pretty simple recipe, nearly identical to recipes I've googled. I'll post it below now that I'm home.

I don't like my beans sweet so I use this Bon Appetit recipe
Baked Beans with Slab Bacon & Breadcrumbs
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients:- 2 cups dried navy or cannellini beans, soaked overnight
- 2 medium onions, 1 halved, 1 thinly sliced
- 1 Parmesan rind (optional), plus ½ cup finely grated Parmesan
- 1 head garlic, halved crosswise, plus 4 cloves, finely chopped, divided
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
- 8 ounces slab bacon, cut into 2â€x¼†pieces
- 1 large shallot, thinly sliced
- 4 sprigs thyme plus 1 tablespoon leaves
- Freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- 1½ cups fresh breadcrumbs, coarsely torn
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation:- Drain beans and place in a large heavy pot along with halved onion, Parmesan rind (if using), halved head of garlic, bay leaves and 2 tsp salt. Add water to cover by 2â€. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until beans are tender, 1–1½ hours.
- Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until brown and most of fat has rendered, 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add thinly sliced onion, shallot, thyme sprigs and ¾ of chopped garlic to pan drippings in skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is starting to caramelize and is very soft, 10–15 minutes. Add wine; bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and pluck out thyme sprigs.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Drain beans, reserving cooking liquid. Transfer beans to a large bowl and mix in bacon, onion mixture, thyme leaves, grated Parmesan and 1½â€“2 cups cooking liquid (this will be most of it; mixture should be consistency of stew); season with salt and pepper. Transfer beans to a shallow 1½qt baking dish.
- Mix breadcrumbs, oil and remaining chopped garlic in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Scatter over beans; bake until liquid is thickened and bubbling and crumbs are golden brown, 45–55 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Don't I know what you're talking about! Over the years being married to me, my sweet-tooth hubby has learned to sweeten foods with a lighter hand, but every once in awhile he will sweeten baked beans to his usual sugary preference. I just about can't eat them.

WSM 22.5", Pitmaster IQ110, Weber 22.5" Kettle with SNS, Weber 14" Smokey Joe.
I usually buy Bush beans of choice and doctor them up with either cooked and chopped thick cut bacon of for something heartier, add well-browned ground beef. Seasonings I tend to use are brown sugar, molasses, onion powder, onion flakes, mustard powder and a family favorite, ground clove. The amount of clove is minimal as it can really overpower the flavor. Also, I don't use all of those ingredients but pick the ones I want at the time. I just mix all the ingredients, put in our bean pot covered, then place into a 250 degree oven to slow cook and bring the flavors together.

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." ~Benjamin Franklin
This is my mom's Boston Baked Beans recipe. She was raised in Scituate, Mass. and I learned from her how to make this recipe, clam chowder, Yorkshire pudding, and such.
The recipe is written such that you do certain steps at certain times of the day so the beans will be ready for supper. This is traditionally served with brown bread (recipe below).
Boston Baked Beans
1 - 1lb bag small white beans (Navy or Great Northern are good)
1 onion
small chunk of salt pork
2 tsp dry mustard
molasses
1/3 cup brown sugar
Broth from boiling the beans
Cull the beans and rinse. Cover with water and soak over night in a large sauce pan. Early morning: bring beans to a boil and cook for one hour. Turn off and let sit until 11:00 - 11:30am.
Pre-heat oven to 325-350 degrees. Peel onion and quarter, but not all the way through. Place onion in bottom of bean pot. Add the beans and then only enough of the bean broth to cover them (save the rest of the broth). Add (sprinkle over the top) the dry mustard and the brown sugar. Pour a healthy dollop of molasses on top. Score the salt pork 1" deep and push it part way into the middle of the beans. Put the lid on the bean pot and place the bean pot in the oven. Cook until 5:00pm, checking every 45-60 minutes to see if you need to add more bean broth. Remove the lid and cook another 30 minutes until the salt pork is browned.
NOTE: Salt pork these days does not have much salt. You may wish to add 1 tsp. of salt when you boil the beans in the morning.
Boston Brown Bread
1 C corn meal
1 C rye flour
1 C graham flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3/4 C molasses
2 C buttermilk or sour milk
Optional: 1 C raisins
Sift corn meal, rye flour, soda, and salt together and mix well with graham flour. Add combined molasses and butter milk (or sour milk) and mix well. Fill greased molds 2/3 full, cover closely, and steam 3 hours. Remove covers and dry tops in moderate oven (375*). Makes three loaves.
I steamed the bread in a Chambers deepwell pot with the bread steamer insert. Here it is warming in the oven as the beans were finishing and on the plate.

Draznnl Im not sure if it is restaurant quality or not. It is a really simple recipe and uses canned clams. I don't measure anything so if you are interested I might have to do a video of it to show how to make it. Or, it is very similar to the Cullen Skink recipe I posted a few weeks ago, just substitute clams: https://pitmaster.amazingribs.com/fo...sh-soup-recipe
I'll summarize below.Last edited by 58limited; July 15, 2021, 06:29 AM.

First you cook the diced potatoes in the clam juice from the cans (saute the onions in butter first, then add the potatoes and clam juice). When the potatoes are done add milk and cream to taste, S&P, and the clams. Cook ten minutes. Thicken with a slurry of flour and water or I sometimes use the cream gravy mix you buy at the store. Mom always cooked fine diced salt pork, then sauteed the onions in the fat. Sprinkle the crisp salt pork on top to serve, and serve with oyster crackers on top too.Last edited by 58limited; July 15, 2021, 06:30 AM.

58limited Thanks for the recipe! You mention broth a couple of times in the cooking but there is not a broth listed in the ingredients. What kind of broth does it call for?

I just tried the Burbon BBQ recipe at the spur of the moment. It was a pleasant surprise. Saw this thread and it had me looking at the recipes on the site. I have not been a fan of beans. It's not that I didn't like them. I just never were thrilled about baked beans. I love red beans and rice - real easy Blue Runner cajun beans with sausage and some Bearded Butcher black rub. Not sure why that rub, but I like that rub in the red beans.
The Burbon BBQ beans recipe was a great start. I will try different beans with the recipe in the future, and definitely something I'll continue to cook now. I know I wanted sweet, so went with that one. I couldn't find the white canned beans per the recipe, so got the canned pinto beans. I did go with the apple (honey crisp) option soaked in bourbon and the mild pepper. The apple was a great addition. I cooked 4 pieces of bacon in an iron skillet and smoked 5 pieces, so went with 9 strips of bacon vs the 6 in the recipe. I did put a chuck roast on the rack above and cooked (pellet smoker) for 2 hrs and 45 minutes. The chuck in a sous vide bath now.
