Saturday we did a BBQ again. BBQ at our house is a common thing. We have a smoker so why not? This time we smoked ribs, chicken and corn. I made Smokey Chipotle Mac n Cheese and BBQ Baked Beans to go along with this feast. It’s safe to say that the baked beans were the BEST baked beans I’ve ever had. The mac n cheese was phenomenal as well and I will be sharing that recipe with you later this week. So sit tight. I know, you wish you had the delicious mac n cheese recipe sitting in front of you right now but trust me, these beans are sure to make you forget all about the mac n cheese. This is a Julie original – I made this recipe up using the taste test method! I hope you enjoy this recipe.
Ingredients
- 8oz of bacon (I used cherry wood smoked)
- 1 16oz can of pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 15.8oz can of northern beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1/2 C brown sugar
- 2 1/2 tbsp molasses
- 1/2 C ketchup
- 3/4 tsp ground mustard
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp liquid smoke
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
Directions
- In a large pan or pot, cook the bacon. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.
- Add the onion to the pan of bacon grease and cook until tender.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, molasses, ketchup, ground mustard, salt, cayenne pepper, liquid smoke. Mix in the onion and bacon grease. Add the beans and mix well.
- Pour the beans into a baking dish and place the cooked bacon on top. Bake on 350 for 30 minutes.
Enjoy

yummy. I am making these tonight for dinner. I cut up a little bit of apple to go with it all and add maple syrup!
Baked beans are one of our favorite side dishes! Looks great, Julie!

I made this recipe for a Mothers Day BBQ and it was AMAZING. There were several people, myself included, who don’t normally like baked beans, and absolutely loved these! Thanks for this awesome recipe!
