The canned beans give you what you want - a delicious hearty meal of beans; they are also modern and convenient. The wider doorway seems to offer modernity and convenience while also giving you what you want -- egress and ingress within your house.

What in the world is fat salt pork? It sounds exactly like something in Little House on the Prairie. Do I get it at the meat counter? (Obviously I'm new to New England, but I'm trying to learn...) And I love the beanpot! I saw several in a store in Cape Cod (sadly not for sale). Now that I know what they're called, I can do some online research. Looks delish!

I then but the beans in the beanpot and bake them in the over at 300 degrees for about 3 hours. I sometimes put bacon strips on top. People always rave about my beans and ask me for my recipe. I always laugh and tell them its an old family secret. My trick to great beans is to open up two cans of baked beans, preferably B&M or whatever is on sale.

Do you have cole slaw with them? Very good.....! Thanks for following on Twitter! Yes, I make my beans in that wonderful bean pot, but with molasses, not maple syrup. Do you have cole slaw with them?

I bet the B&M ones don't use real maple syrup. Maybe you can do it easier in a crockpot. I'd love to figure out an easy way to make a similar dish, beans with duck (cassoulet). Tonight I'm making another traditional New England dish, salt cod chowder. First time cooking with salt cod. It's very practical because it's easily available where we live, it's cheap, and it keeps for a long time. Actually, it sounds pretty good. I bet the B&M ones don’t use real maple syrup.

That doesn't happen too often. A blind taste test would be fun. And yes, it is hard sometimes to convince meat eaters that beans and bread can be a meal but your efforts are not wasted. Grain plus legume is actually a complete protein when combined and very healthful in so many other ways, so it just takes some time I think to introduce more vegetarian meals into a meat-lover's menu.
