What Are Baked Beans With Burnt Ends?

Baked beans are a type of food that is made from cooked beans, usually navy, kidney, or pinto beans. The dish is typically baked in a baking dish or casserole dish. It is common to add bacon, molasses, brown sugar, and tomato sauce to baked beans, but in this case, we’re going to add burnt ends.

What You’ll Need To Make Baked Beans With Burnt Ends

What Kind Of Burnt Ends Should You Use?

There are many different ways to make baked beans, but one of the most popular methods is to use burnt ends. Burnt ends are the crisp, caramelized edges of meat that have been cooked for a long time. This gives them a deep, rich flavor that is perfect for complementing the sweetness of baked beans.

There are two main types of burnt ends: pork and beef. Pork burnt ends tend to be more tender, while beef burnt ends are more flavorful. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide which type of burnt end you want to use. For this recipe, we’re using pork since that’s what was available to us at the time.
