EASY BAKED BEANS
I have been making this for almost 40 years. The original recipe calls for all ketchup; it was my idea to make that half ketchup and half barbeque sauce. I do love spicy. I have never had a baked bean recipe that was this good and also this easy. Nobody will know you didn't spend all day on it.

- Add plenty of aromatics to the pot when cooking the beans. This will help to infuse them with flavor. Common aromatics include onion, garlic, celery, carrots, and bay leaves.
- Use a variety of spices to season the beans. Common spices include chili powder, cumin, oregano, and paprika.
