Original Recipe OVEN-BAKED BEANS with BACON
Original Firehouse OVEN-BAKED BEANS with BACON is Captain Ken’s signature, made-from-scratch, bean recipe. It was perfected at Fire Station House #14, in St. Paul, MN, where the company’s founder, Ken Freiberg was Captain. The beans were first served at the Minnesota State Fair in 1963. They are made with the finest Grade A navy beans, lots of bacon, rich molasses, brown sugar, and spices, then slowly oven-baked (not canned) using a process that has made Captain Ken’s baked beans famous for gong on 50 years!
BAKED APPLEBEANS with PECANS
Captain Ken’s BAKED APPLEBEANS with PECANS is an incredibly great tasting bean recipe. It combines Captain Ken’s famous oven-baked beans with specially seasoned apple pie filling. Serve with pork chops or BBQ ribs. You’ll never find a better combination. This side-dish is equally suited for white-table cloth restaurants as backyard barbeques. Because of it’s sweet flavor, we sometimes refer to this recipe as our “dessert of beans”. Guests will be wowed.
BAKED APPLEBEANS (No Pecans)
Captain Ken’s BAKED APPLEBEANS (No Pecans) is the same great tasting recipe as our Baked Applebeans with Pecans, just no pecans. It combines all the same premium ingredients to make this recipe a special treat for guests. When heating, a special treat is to keep the product in the oven until the recipe begins to slightly caramelize. Unique and delicious. Another favorite from the Captain.
