Categories     4th of July     BBQ     Memorial Day     Side Dish

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb ground beef
4 strips hickory smoked bacon
1/2 cup brown sugar ((light or dark))
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 Tbsp liquid smoke ((Wright's hickory))
1 tsp ground black pepper
2 28 oz cans Bush's Baked Beans ((original flavor))
green pepper ((optional, diced and sauteed))

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F ( 205 degrees C ) and set out a large casserole dish.
  • In a large skillet over medium high heat, add the ground beef and allow it to cook until browned. Break the ground beef up while cooking. *If you want to add onion or green peppers, cook with the ground beef.
  • Once the hamburger is browned and the grease has been drained, add the brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, Wright's hickory liquid smoke, and season with ground black pepper. Stir well to combine. *You can use either light brown sugar or dark brown sugar, if you have dark brown sugar on hand it will add a deeper flavor from the higher molasses content.
  • Open your cans of Bush's Original Recipe Baked Beans and drain off the liquid that is settled at the top of the can. Add the beans to the ground beef mixture, stir just enough to mix well then transfer into your casserole dish.
  • Cut your bacon into 1/2 wide strips and place cut bacon onto baked beans, or use kitchen shears and cut the strips directly onto the beans in the casserole dish.
  • Bake uncovered at 400 degrees F ( 205 degrees C ) for 30 minutes. If you want extra crispy bacon, broil for 5 minutes after baking.

10 slices bacon

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef and bacon. Opt for lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and nitrate-free bacon for a healthier option.
  • Soak the beans overnight or for a minimum of 4-6 hours to reduce cooking time. This step also helps remove indigestible sugars, making the beans easier to digest.
  • Use a variety of beans to add texture and flavor to the dish. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are popular choices, but you can experiment with other types as well.
  • Don't skimp on the spices. A good blend of spices, including chili powder, cumin, and paprika, is essential for creating a flavorful dish.
  • Simmer the beans for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the beans to become tender.
  • Serve the barbecue beans with your favorite sides, such as cornbread, mashed potatoes, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Barbecue beans with ground beef and bacon are a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or potluck. With a few simple ingredients and some time, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try!
