Dave Cen.Ia - 7/5/2020 17:31 I have no experience with making baked beans from anything other than canned ingredients and I have made a lot of chili for larger groups over time. I really like an electric roaster for the job. Smaller batches, I'd use a crockpot but we may be talking apples and oranges here. Something tells me I am not giving you a good solution, your needs will likely be very different.
