Storage and Make-Ahead
These keep in sealed jars for up to a year in a cool, dark pantry. Once opened, use within a week and keep them in the fridge.
You can also freeze the finished beans in containers for up to 3 months if you don’t want to bother with canning.
Can I Make Changes?
Different beans?
Navy beans really are best, but Great Northern beans work in a pinch. Just watch the cooking time.
No bacon?
You can use diced ham or skip the meat entirely. Just use a little oil to cook the onions.
Less sweet?
Cut back on the brown sugar, but keep the molasses. It brings more than just sweetness.
Want more heat?
Add a pinch of cayenne or some hot sauce with the other seasonings.
