This is a fantastic baked bean recipe from cookbook author Pam Anderson. I made these this past Memorial Day for a cookout and they were delicious. These are southern style, which means they are sweet, but they go well with BBQ. Read more The long lower temperature baking time makes them thick and caramelizes the bacon on top. Note: This recipe calls for plain canned pork and beans. Because most of the liquid cooks out of the beans during baking, choose a brand of pork and beans or baked beans that have a lot of liquid. I used 2 cans of Bush's Baked Beans and 1 can of regular pork and beans and it was almost too dry by the end of the 2 hour baking time (but still yummy!) Next time, I'll use just all plain pork and beans. See less
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon, halved shopping list
- 1 onion, finely diced shopping list
- 1/2 green pepper, finely diced shopping list
- 3 cans (28 ounces each) pork and beans (See note in intro) shopping list
- 3/4 cup barbecue sauce ( I used Sweet Baby Rays Original) shopping list
- 1/2 cup brown sugar shopping list
- 1/4 cup distilled or cider vinegar shopping list
- 2 teaspoons dry mustard or 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard shopping list
How to make it
- Place oven rack in the lower-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees. Fry bacon slices in large skillet (big enough to ultimately hold all ingredients) until bacon is partially cooked. (There should be about 1/4 cup drippings in the pan). Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Add onions and peppers to drippings in pan and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add beans and remaining ingredients bring to a simmer. Pour bean mixture into a greased 13-by 9-inch ovenproof pan. Top with bacon slices. Bake for about 2 hours, until beans are bubbly and sauce is the consistency of pancake syrup. Let stand for 5-10 minutes to thicken slightly and serve.
