Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Prepared Yellow Mustard
- 3 Cups Ketchup
- 1 Cup Diced Onion
- 1 Green or Red Bell Pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 1/2 Cups Packed Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Sorghum or Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Magic Dust (recipe Below) (1 to 1 1/2)
- 1 Large Can Pork and Beans (28 ounces)
- 1 Can Large Red Kidney Beans (19 ounces) drained and rinsed
- 1 Can Chili Beans (15 1/2 ounces)
- 1 Can A Fourth Bean (15 1/2 ounces)
- 4 Slices Bacon or a Few Cooked Ribs or Some Barbecued Pulled Pork (4 to 5)
Preparation
Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the mustard, ketchup, onion, bell pepper, brown sugar, sorghum or honey, and Magic Dust together in a large bowl. Be sure to work out all the lumps of brown sugar.
3. Add the beans stirring gently with clean hands or a big spoon, just enough to evenly distribute the mixture. Over mixing will cause the skins of the beans to burst and the consistency will become mushy, more like refried beans, which you don’t want.
4. Pour into 13x9-inch baking dish. Lay the bacon strips, ribs or pork across the top.
5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
6. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until bubbly.
