Baked beans to can

The past few days the girls and I canned 42 quarts of beans. We canned ham and beans, ranch beans, pork and beans, chili beans and baked beans. Here are the recipes I used.


Baked beans to can.

For each quart jar add 1 level cup of navy beans.  We used a mixture of navy, pinto and black beans.  Be sure to wash and sort the beans but do not cook or soak.

1 T. pork, ham, bacon or bacon bits
1 T. molasses
1 T. apple cider vinegar
1 t. salt
1/4 t. dry mustard
1 T. onion

Fill each jar to within one inch of the top with a mix of tomato juice and water.  Process at ten pounds pressure for 1 1/2 hours.

  1. How do you combine the other ingredients with the beans for canning?

  2. Val,
    I just put my beans in the jar then add the other ingredients on top of that, then add the fluid called for in the recipe. You dont need to combine or shake.
