Good cowboy baked beans recipe

What do you mean by the “cowboy”reference?

I usually brown a pound of breakfast sausage, drainthe excess fat,and addthat to my beans.

I posted this previously:




Here’s what I do.

Baked Beans

Ingredients

1 lb bacon, fine diced
1 lb hot breakfast sausage
2 medium onions, fine diced
2 jalapeño peppers, minced, seeds removed
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cans(15 oz)Van Camps beans, with liquid
1 can black beans, with liquid
1 bunch green onions, minced
4 T parsley, minced
1 t each, onion and garlic powder
2 bay leaves
1/2 T dry mustard
2 T Worcestershire sauce
1T Tony’s
1 t black pepper
1 cup BBQ sauce (used KC Masterpiece)
1.5 to 2 cups Norris Best syrup (use a dark syrup)


Method

Brown the bacon, sausage, and onions in an oven proof pot. Use medium heat and cook until the onions are beginning to get a good color. Add the garlic during the last minute or two were of the sauté stage.

And all remaining ingredients and mix well. You can taste at this point to adjust seasonings, particularly the Tonys for salt.

Place in a 325 to 350° oven, either in this pot or in a baking dish. Cover the dish for the first two hours or so of cooking, then remove the cover to reduce the liquid volume a bit and develop a little more color on the beans. Total cooking time should be around three hours or so.

These are pretty sweet which I like, but you ca adjust the brown sugar if needed.

5 cans Bush's baked beans; 3 original,1 maple ,1 brown sugar
1 lb. bacon cut into chunks
1.5lb. leftover brisket diced...you can use pulled pork also.
1 medium onion diced
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
4 cloves of garlic minced...I use more but that's just me.
1/4 cup prepared yellow mustard
3/4 cup sweet BBQ sauce2 TBLS of you favorite BBQ rub black pepper to taste
1 8oz. can of diced pineapple w/juice
liquid as needed for consistency...I use Shiner Bock

Fry bacon and remove, using bacon grease add bell peppers for 10 min. then add garlic after 5 mins. add brisket. Bring up to temp. add bacon then beans add reaming ingredients.
Simmer for 30 mins. then check for seasoning and consistency.

Dam all those look great I will try a mixture of all. Thanks

Next time I do pulled pork, these beans go under the meat for the last 3 hours to catch drippings.
