Three-Bean Baked Beans
Source of Recipe
my adaptation of a Taste of Home recipe
Recipe Introduction
These are great served at a BBQ! The ground chipotle powder makes them a little spicy.
List of Ingredients
1/2 lb. thick-sliced bacon -- diced
1 medium onion -- diced
1 medium red or green bell pepper -- diced
1 can Bush's Original Baked Beans -- (32 oz.) undrained
1 can baby butter beans -- (16 oz.) rinsed and drained
1 can great northern beans -- (16 oz.) rinsed and drained
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar -- (2/3 to 3/4)
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/3 cup BBQ sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2 T. maple syrup or molasses
2 T. dijon mustard
1/2 t. ground chipotle powder or chili powder -- (1/2 to 3/4)
fresh ground pepper -- to taste
Recipe
In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp over med-low heat. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Drain off some of the bacon grease, leaving 1 or 2 T. Cook the onion and red pepper over med. heat in the bacon grease until done.
Combine everything together and pour into a greased deep casserole dish.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until beans reach desired thickness.
NOTES : I used K.C. Masterpiece Hickory Brown Sugar BBQ sauce. I cut some of the excess fat off the bacon. Can add more liquids before baking if it's not soupy enough.
