Yes, we are having delicious baked beans. I also make mine from scratch, using bell pepper, onion, small peice of fatback and brown sugar. I do pick and let my beans sit in water over night.

Were they cooking with soda in the 1880s? What’s the date on this recipe, please?

  They’re talking about baking soda I believe, which has been around a long time

I have made them for decades. I start with dried beans and then follow a recipe of my own. The family loves them.
