The best way to thicken canned baked beans is to bring them to a boil, reduce the heat, and cook until some of the liquid had cooked away. Stir the beans often to avoid them sticking in the bottom of the pan.

There usually are directions on the side of the can, but if not: Put a pan on the range/stove/fire and have the heat on low - pour the beans from the can into the pan - Cook them for about 3 minutes at maximum. In Addition: There are a wide variety of recipes for baked beans. Generally you fry some bacon in a pan until it is about half cooked, then remove the bacon and add some chopped onion and chopped green peppers (and whatever other vegetables you might like such as jalapeno peppers) to the bacon grease in the pan. Cook until tender. Mix up your favorite recipe for barbecue sauce or use bottled barbecue sauce. You can also add things to the bottled sauce, such as brown sugar, vinegar, and mustard. Add beans to the onions and green peppers. You can use navy beans that have been soaked overnight or canned beans such as pork and beans or canned baked beans. Stir it all together, then add your barbecue sauce mixture. Bring it to a simmer, then pour into a large casserole or baking dish.

Where can you buy cattle drive baked beans?
Aunt Kitty's Cattle Drive Baked Beans were first made during a Cattle Drive that was organized by Aunt Kitty in the late 20th century. She created them as a means of feeding the masses when the Kettle Korn King of South Carolina failed to show at the Atlanta State Fair. There were, unfortunately, too few hogs to slaughter, which served as the original plan (Hog Dogs) to supplement the Kettle Korn King's corn. Aunt Kitty, under immense pressure, traveled into the Forbidden Forest to dig up Legume Root, which was the secret ingredient in her baked beans. Kitty dug a hole in the ground, put in all the special ingredients, covered them with molten lava, and then buried it for six weeks. When she returned at the end of the six weeks, with a chisel, hammer, and hairdryer, she painstakingly excavated the baked beans. Having enough to feed the famished frontiersman, she returned to the State Fair/Cattle Drive. Much to her chagrin, the frontiersman were undeniably dead. They had starved without her baked beans. Even more unfortunate, she had a surfeit of baked beans. The surplus was then canned in The Great Canning of 1999. You can pick up your can of Aunt Kitty's Cattle Drive Baked Beans at your local Piggy Wiggly for $5.99. The upcharge is due to the molten lava and excavation costs she incurred a mere three decades ago.

Yes, you can freeze them although I don't see the benefit if they are already canned. If you are asking if you can put an unopened can of black beans in a can into a freezer then freeze it the answer would be "Yes". I do not know whether or not the can might rupture when frozen but I believe that only happens with carbonated or fermented products that are canned.
Are beans fattening?
Getting fat has more to do with the amount you're eating rather than with the substance you're eating. Store-bought baked beans tends to be surprisingly high in sugars though due to the sauce they're in. Beans are known however for causing flatulence, so they might make you a bit inflated.
