    Canned beans do not make Boston Baked Beans. I'm from Boston and I had them frequently growing up. You need the slow cooking and the soaking to make them great.

    Some people have never tried this and just doctored up canned beans. NOT EVEN CLOSE.

    Try it!

    I've only had baked beans a couple of times, and I'm pretty sure they were canned. But I wanted to give this healthy version a try. And let me tell you, you will not regret trying this! The only change I made was to use dijon mustard and turkey bacon because that is what I had on hand.DELICIOUS! - 1/28/10

    Yes you need the full amount of water. canned beans are already cooked and have absorbed the water. Now for my taste I like a bit more ketshup and a tbl. of liquid smoke.
    NIce recipe.Also for canned beans you need more moisture to prevent schorching in a crock pot. Otherwise bake them. Chef Jim
