BBQ BAKED BEANS
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.

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.
- Transfer the pot to the oven and bake (uncovered) until the sauce thickens and the beans on top begin to brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

BBQ BAKED BEANS (SUGAR-FREE)
From The Allergy Self-Help Cookbook by Marjorie Hurt Jones, c. 2001. Commerically prepared baked beans can be a problem for people with allergies because they often contain sugar and corn syrup, plus ambiguous ingredients such as modified food starch and "natural flavoring." Slowly baking these beans contributes to their wonderful flavor and aroma.

Steps:
- Add dry beans to a bowl, cover with water, and let soak for 8 hours, or overnight.

Tips:
- Use dry beans: These are cheaper and have a longer shelf life than canned baked beans. You can use any type of dry beans you like, such as navy beans, kidney beans, or black beans.
- Soak the beans overnight: This will help them to cook faster and more evenly. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Use a slow cooker: This is the easiest way to make baked beans. Just add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.
- Add a variety of seasonings: This will give your baked beans more flavor. Some popular seasonings to add include brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses, ketchup, mustard, garlic, and onion.
- Don't forget the bacon: Bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor to baked beans. You can use regular bacon or turkey bacon.
- Serve with your favorite sides: Baked beans are a great side dish for any meal. They can be served with grilled chicken, pork, or fish, or with a vegetarian main course.
Conclusion:
Baked beans are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like them sweet, savory, or smoky, there is a baked bean recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, give baked beans a try.
