Baked beans.

Getting food ideas for a Fall elk hunt. Wall tent and good cooking area. Want to bring some pre made food. Best baked bean recipes? mtmuley

Neely's recipe is good.
I use a mix of different varieties of canned beans instead of pork and beans and cut back on the sugar.

I've made Steven Reichlin's baked bean recipe a few times, definitely better than just heating up a can of Bush's. It's a fun one to simmer over a camp fire in an aluminum pan while you're prepping other food around camp. Link: https://barbecuebible.com/recipe/best-barbecued-beans-planet/

Simple and delicious.

Pit Beans

These pit beans are sweet, smoky and meaty. The perfect baked beans for any backyard BBQ.

I have some good stuff from you guys so far. Don't want meat in the beans unless bacon. Thanks a bunch. mtmuley

These have been a family favorite since a trip to Roosevelt Lodge in YNP years ago.

If you’ve never had them with ground beef in it, you don’t know what you’re missing.

I do understand that, but I want these as a side to, well elk liver. Or loin. mtmuley

Doctored Bush Beans are my go to…no complaints.

Best beans I've ever eaten. Chicharones (pork rinds) make the difference.

My mom forced me to eat liver when I was a kid. I absolutely detest it.

I leave it for the coyotes.

I remember my uncle made some with whiskey. I've never seen the recipe. But it was good. Not sure if anyone else can chime in on that.

Prepared properly from a freshly killed wapiti may change your mind. Especially with great baked beans and fried potatoes. Hits the spot. Especially after a shitty pack out. mtmuley

What’s the secret method? Other than bury it?

I’ll give it a college try.

Dredge in milk and flour. Salt, pepper and onions fried with it. Don't over cook. Fresh is best. I've frozen it and it's ok. mtmuley

So medium rare?

If it is over cooked it tastes like a shoe. Years ago in the Breaks my buddy and I introduced some boys from Pennsylvania to fresh elk liver. They, and one of their Father's had the only NR bull tags where we were at. All three killed bulls. I bet they will never forget the hunts or the dinner we had. One of them used to lurk here. Awesome evening. mtmuley
