Directions
Drain 2 cans of B&M, or Bush's "baked beans" (Campbell's pork & beans will work in a pinch). Drain 75% or more of liquid from beans and discard (the liquid, not the beans). Pour beans into baking dish (no lid required). In a skillet, fry 4 thick slices of HICKORY smoked bacon well done, pat dry, and place in freezer so that it becomes brittle while preparing other ingredients. Now fry 4 more slices of bacon until medium done, and set aside.
Drain all but 2 or 3 tablespoons of bacon grease out of skillet and save for other recipes. Sauté 1 small onion, 1 small green, and 1 small red (if available) bell pepper for 3 or 4 minutes in hot bacon grease. Pour sautéed onions, peppers, and bacon grease into beans. In a cup, mix 2 tablespoons of yellow mustard, 4 or 5 tablespoons of your favorite BBQ sauce, 3 tablespoons of dark brown sugar, or 5 tablespoons of molasses, and pour into beans. Crumble or dice the cold bacon with a good chef's knife, and stir into beans. Place medium-done bacon slices on top of the beans and bake in oven at 350F for about 45 minutes, or in your pit until thick and rich. Hope you guys like this as well as we do.
