I’d go easy on getting too rad with the baked beans, especially if there are older folks attending the picnic. Most people expect and want the traditional navy or great northern beans with molasses and brown sugar sauce. Otherwise you may be bringing your casserole home untouched which will hurt your feelings, I’m sure. However, if you’re looking for recipes, recipesource.com or allrecipes.com are good places to start your search. You’ll pull up more recipes that you can ever read through.

I need a recipe for baked beans to take to a July 4th picnic -something unusual, something other than the ordinary run-of-the-mill baked beans that’s not too sweet or too spicy, but not bland either. I’ve also been browsing the Internet for a baked bean recipe using black beans or some other bean that is not usually used for baked beans. I welcome recipe ideas. Thanks in advance.
