Recipe from Brian BallouINGREDIENTS
1 lb thick sliced bacon, chopped
3 large sweet onions, diced
5 bell peppers, diced
12 hot links, sliced into half moons
3/4 lb light brown sugar
18 oz BBQ Sauce, sug: Sweet Baby Ray's*
2- 55 oz cans Bush's Baked Beans Homestyle*
1- 55 oz can Bush's Baked Beans Original*
Vinegar (optional)**
*Use whatever ratio or brand you want, this is just what I have always used, and it works.
**If you find that the beans are too sweet, throw in a dash of vinegar to cut the sweetness.
DIRECTIONS
In a large pot, over medium heat cook bacon until crispy.
Remove from pot, and leave rendered bacon fat in pot.
Add onions and peppers, and cook until soft. Add hot links and brown.
Return bacon to pot, add brown sugar and BBQ sauce. Mix thoroughly.
Stir as you add baked beans to mixture. Cook over medium heat until beans are warmed.
Remove from heat and serve.
I used to work at an oilfield chemical company, and every year we were tasked with catering the API Golf Tournament Lunch for the Friday flights every year. I had joked that we needed to do catering on the side, because we'd kill it. This recipe for baked beans will make the crankiest of old men happy to see you. They will also keep them coming back for more, even if they just ate or are about to eat, a crap ton of food on the course. They are spicy, they are sweet, they are delicious. I'm certain I will find true love someday while serving these baked beans.
