About Baked Beans
Golden Corral Baked Beans cost from $2.99 as a To Go side and carry 420 calories. The kitchen bakes navy beans in a sweet tomato and molasses sauce with onion and bacon, holding them long enough that the sauce thickens around each bean rather than pooling underneath.
Baked beans are the natural partner to smoked and fried proteins, which is why they sit beside pulled pork and fried chicken on most trays. Sweetness is the point here, balanced by enough vinegar to keep it from reading as dessert. The recipe below bakes for 90 minutes and gets better the next day.

How to Make Baked Beans at Home?
Canned navy beans get you a 90 minute version of a dish that traditionally takes all day. The sauce does the work, and a long bake is what thickens it around the beans.

Tips

Variations
- Add diced jalapeno for heat against the sweetness.
- Swap bacon for smoked sausage rounds.

- Spoon over a baked potato with cheese.
- Serve alongside cornbread for a simple supper.
