Рецепт BBQ Baked Beans (and a pre-bake sale announcement)
I posted my favorite recipe for BBQ sauce on the Fourth for Holiday Recipe Club. Today I want to share a recipe for BBQ Baked Beans that we had to accompany those fabulous baby back ribs.
BBQ Baked Beans
5 slices bacon, cooked crisp (reserve fat)
1 sweet onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped (or I actually used a small green pepper and two other sweet peppers from the garden.)
1 can pork ‘n beans, drained a bit with the lumpy fat removed.
(I know, I know, but these are the traditional base.)
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 c. BBQ sauce
- 1/4 c. Worcestershire
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Fry bacon until crisp and then remove from skillet to drain. Crumble.
Add onion and peppers to fat and saute until soft. Spoon the veggies out on a paper towel to drain a lot of the excess fat.*
In a medium mixing bowl, combine BBQ sauce and Worcestershire. Whisk. Stir in beans, bacon, and veggies.
Barbecue goodness.
Place in a cooking dish and bake for 45-60 minutes.
Honestly, though, I have made them sans the bacon, sauteing the veggies in olive oil and they are just as good.
Healthy eating!

My dad lives in southern Colorado around La Veta Pass. It is a beautiful spot but prone to wild fires. A couple of years ago, he moved everything out of his house and put it in storage in Pueblo because they were told to evacuate. Luckily, the house was not damaged at all. But, as fire season starts up again, I worry. (During my Happy Fourth phone call, he said they were getting regular afternoon rains! That is good news and those rains should keep the fires at bay.) We also have family that lives east of Boulder and although they do not live in a forested area like Dad, they do live in an area that is surrounded by acres of grassland. It still worries me. This bake sale hit me in my heart because on any other given day, my family could be directly affected by wild fires.
Please help out and donate to the Red Cross’ Colorado Disaster Relief Fund via this bake sale.
