baked beans

[smokin stu]

I kept the bone from a pork butt I had smoked and threw it in the slow cooker when cooking up some baked beans.  It did some good, but it did not impart as much flavor as I wanted.  Next time I think I will keep some of that pulled pork as well and throw it and the bone in with the baked beans to see if I can get that smoky flavor to them. 

My other option is to smoke some bacon and just do it that way, but I was hoping to get something more out of that pork bone.......

Make your beans and put them in a foil pan and throw the whole works in the smoker for 1:40 of smoke stirring every 20 minutes should impart some smoke into your beans just fine

Ditto.

Last time I made Hog Apple beans, I smoked the bacon until it was crispy, mixed in the beans/apple pie filling/bbq sauce/etc. and put the pot (it was an old pressure cooker pot that I cut the handle off), in the smoker for a couple hours.

I've tried making pulled pork chlii with the pork shoulder bones thrown in, and got not much if any flavor out of them as well.

I like to chop some pulled pork and mix into the beans, and then cook them in a casserole dish covered with strips of bacon.  when the bacon is done, the beans are done, and there's plenty of PORK FLAVOR  ;D
