Categories     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 9

1.5 lbs ground hot breakfast sausage
1/2 C ketchup
1/4 C dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp spicy brown mustard
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp minced garlic
1 (28 oz can) pork and beans, (or 2 (15 oz) cans)
1 small yellow onion, (diced)
1/2 bell pepper, (diced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375° Fahrenheit. Spray 3 quart casserole dish with non stick cooking spray.
  • In a skillet on the stove top over medium heat, cook 1/2 lb hot ground sausage, browning and breaking it up into crumbles. When lightly browned and crumbled to desired size, remove from pan and set aside.
  • Slice 1 lb hot ground sausage into at least 10 patties. Using the same skillet as before, very lightly brown the sausage patties, but do not cook through. This makes sure they brown with a bit of crisp edges when baking later. Let patties drain on a paper towel.
  • In a large measuring cup, whisk together brown sugar, ketchup, spicy brown mustard, Worcestershire sauce and minced garlic to make the sauce for the beans. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together pork and beans, sausage crumbles, yellow onion, and green bell pepper. Stir in sauce from the previous step and mix thoroughly but gently. Pour bean and sauce mixture into the greased casserole dish. Top with sausage patties. Press the patties gently down into the beans.
  • Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 35-45 minutes. If necessary cover beans, with foil or lid around 25 minutes or so if the sausage begins to overbrown.

MAMA NEELY'S BAKED BEANS



Mama Neely's Baked Beans image

Pat: Every Fourth of July, Mama Neely made her famous baked beans: she'd brown ground beef and then doctor that beef with molasses, brown sugar, and plenty of spices. Let me tell you, those beans were good. And so are these. We've found that using smoked sausage in place of the ground beef (or pork shoulder, as in our restaurant recipe) adds a smoky depth to the dish. Once you make these beans, there is no going back. If you want to put your own spin on it, you can use kidney beans instead of pork and beans, but I say my mama's way is best.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 large onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup light-brown sugar
2 tablespoons apple-cider vinegar
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
Dash of hot sauce, preferably Tabasco

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven set over medium- high heat. Once it's hot, toss in the onion and garlic, and saute until the onion is tender, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the sausage, and continue to cook until the meat has browned, about 4 minutes more. Stir in the pork and beans, ketchup, molasses, sugar, vinegar, mustard, and hot sauce.
