BBQ baked beans are a summer staple. This shortcut version relies on ordinary canned baked beans, which we dress up with fresh peppers, onions, cider vinegar and barbecue sauce. The sweet and tangy side dish is perfect for a summer barbecue, picnic, potluck or weeknight dinner. The beans taste even better the next day, so they can be prepared ahead of time and reheated or served at room temperature.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 slices bacon (about 8 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
Two 28-ounce cans baked beans
1 cup barbecue sauce
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons yellow mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat an oven-proof heavy-bottom pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, until the fat has started to render and the bacon is beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and bell pepper and continue to cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the canned beans, barbecue sauce, molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire, brown sugar, mustard powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
