I am from Vermont and I now live in Titusville, Florida. I love Grandma Brown's baked beans and I was wondering where I could get them down here. Or if I could purchase them from the company? Thank you.

I am from NY but live in Ohio, and each year when I visit home I stock up. I love mixing them with bushes baked beans, catsup, mustard, a little brown sugar, and onions, then bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or so. Yum yum.
There is nothing else on the market like grandma brown's baked beans.

It looks like you can order them directly through Amazon.com. They sell them in either 6 count or 12 count. Hope this helps.

RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
I just love baked beans. Add a little molasses and brown sugar. Mmm. Upstate NY a great place to grow up but a better place to eat. G.M. beans, G.Lakes cheese curd. The ultimate cook out clams, salt potatoes, hoffman hotdogs and Grandma Browns baked beans. Throw in a little fried haddock and a Genny light I might come back to stay. Still loving Raleigh NC, but spending my vacations loading up my goodies from Jefferson county.

Though I no longer live in Mexico, NY, where I grew up, I recently visited this lovely, quiet village with my children. I took my kids on my typical childhood bike ride, which included a trip past the Grandma Brown's Baked Beans plant. I recalled waving to employees on break, friends of my parents, fellow Mexiconians. Please purchase these beans. You'll not only love them - and their health benefits, you'll be helping a beautiful American village thrive! (07/26/2007)

RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
I ordered some from Home Town Favorites and the 6 cans plus shipping was about $40 or about $6.56 a can and to all of those people who've never had them? IT'S WORTH IT! The problem I had was that half my order was dented cans, and the box they arrived in was perfect. So for some reason these mail order places are selling us dented cans... I guess we're easy targets being thousands of miles away but doing that to long-lost fans of specialty foods from childhood is sort of cruel if you ask me. I'm not sorry I tried tho and half the cans are okay. I may not order again, not sure yet... waiting for feedback on my dented cans now.

Opened a small restaurant in Scottsdale, AZ (New York Sausage Company) and I serve Hofmann's franks and coneys, Hofmann's mustard, New England style hot dog buns, Wise potato chips and GB baked beans! They're lovin' 'em out here! (08/12/2007)
By Sharon
RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
Well - I wanted to update on my dented cans since I mentioned them. They've agreed to send me more cans at no cost and they've arrived, so they made good on that although 25% of the new cans are dented as well, so there seems to be some sort of problem with shipping dented cans. There were also quite a few communications breakdowns with Hometown Favorites, but I ended up on top so it's hard to complain about that at this point.
Also - keep in mind that my comment about $6.50 a can was including shipping them out of the country, so if you're in the States, your overall price should be much lower. You can even order them on Amazon.com as long as you're shipping to the States.
I also heard that you can buy them directly by calling Grandma Brown's Baked Beans in Mexico, New York. (That's upstate on the eastern shore of Lake Ontario between the lake and Adirondack Park for those that didn't know we had a city named Mexico in New York State.) Although I didn't call them to confirm that they ship directly.

RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
I grew up on Grandma Brown Baked Beans - my career has taken me all over, but only in NY can you find these wonderful beans. I now live in Georgia, but once or twice a year I travel to the Binghamton NY area to collect all of my "goodies" that you can't get elsewhere (Spiedie Sauce, 2 lb bricks of HeluvGood Cheeses, Salt Potatoes) and the Utica NY area for homemade Polish Sausage and all sorts of other items, including hot peppers, saurerkraut, real "horseradish". I always take several coolers with me so that I don't worry about spoilage before I can get it back to GA. Just keep it covered 7x24 with fresh ice, don't let water set in and all will be great to put right into your freezer! Since I used to live in Landing, NJ, I can tell you that trip was about 2-1/2 hours to the Binghamton area. So if its beans you crave, a short weekend trip will do the trick - just check out all of the other local specialties as well! (08/22/2007)

RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
No recipes yet, but here are the ingredients:
Grandma Brown's Baked Beans:
Water, Navy Beans, Brown Sugar, Bacon, Salt and Baking Soda
Grandma Brown's Bean Soup:
Water, Navy Beans, Onions, Bacon, Brown Sugar, Corn Starch, Salt and Pepper
I'm going to figure out exactly what the right amounts are for these ingredients. If it won't get anybody in legal trouble I'll post the recipes here. I'll probably be doing the soup first. (11/13/2007)
By Dave
RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
Okay, here's the soup, as near as I can tell. If you share the recipe, don't violate their trademark. I have a pretty good idea what the baked bean recipe is going to look like now, but I won't be able to try it until I finish off four quart jars of this soup.
My Grandma's Bean Soup:
- 12 cups water
- 1 lb. navy beans
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1/2 lb. sliced bacon
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup corn starch
- 1 tbl. salt
- 1 tsp. pepper
Rinse beans in cold water. Pick out any small pebbles, insects and other non-bean objects. Soak beans overnight in six cups of water in a two-quart (or bigger) saucepan.
Bring beans to boil and simmer for two hours.
Slice sliced bacon crosswise into very thin strips and fry in a four-quart (or bigger) saucepan on high until it sizzles. Add diced onion and stir until blanched. Reduce heat, then add the boiled beans. Bring the mixture to a boil and stir in the brown sugar. Cover and simmer for an hour, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Add the remaining six cups of water, adding the corn starch to the last two cups. Stir briskly while adding the corn starch mixture to avoid forming lumps. Add salt and pepper and stir.
Makes about 1 gallon. (11/15/2007)

The last time I saw Grandma browns was in Scanton Pa. at Wegmens. (sept. 2007) I never gave it a thought to pick up some, I was so intent on getting the hofmann hot dogs and New Hope pancake mix.

RE: Grandma Brown's Baked Beans
Woe is me. I live in MA but came from Syracuse and was raised on Grandma Browns, Hoffman coneys, Boulevard Fish Fry, fish sandwichs,and Hinderwadels Salt Potatoes, none of which exist in my world now. Grandma Browns have shelf space in local Price Chopper Stores but the shelves are always empty. Sometimes they show up here in the P.C. store in Worcester.
I understand that Hoffman hot dogs, or any other brand for that matter, that aren't manufactured in MA, can't be sold in MA (where is my "don't tread on me flag?), and for good fish fry there is only the option of a trip to Syracuse - sigh. I do periodically make "buying" runs. Need something - I'm at MEDCU in the aol place - write. (02/03/2008)

RE: Grandma Browns Baked Beans 12/31/2005
My wife and I moved to King of Prussia, PA ten years ago, and Grandma Brown's baked beans and bean soup were a couple of things we missed right away. The other was Hofmann's hot dogs--the ones with the natural casings.
About five years ago Wegman's opened up a store in Downingtown, about twenty miles from here. We were very excited to have a place to buy all our New York favorites again, but unfortunately they have since stopped carrying both Grandma Brown's and Hofmann's.
I guess people down here just don't appreciate good food. I swear, they eat like pigs around here. Everybody is crazy about those awful, salty, doughy soft pretzels, smeared with yellow mustard, no less. Worst of all, they eat this stuff called scrapple, which is so gross I wouldn't feed it to a dog. Even their claim to gastronomic fame, the Philly cheesesteak, is just greasy, gristly, overcooked chipped beef on a bun, slathered in cheese whiz. There's no steak and no real cheese either.
Anyway, we just went up to New York to visit our relatives for Christmas, and we stocked up on beans, bean soup, and those great hot dogs. I'm glad to hear that we can order direct from Grandma Brown's, but does anybody know if I can order Hofmann's hot dogs anywhere?

All you New Yorkers need to get together and develop a web site or bulletin board so we can figure out the number of people who miss Grandma Browns Baked Beans. If the nunbers are large enough maybe we can get one of the food chains in Arizona to carry the product. So think about things can be accomplished in number. Good luck.
