Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb bacon cooked and chopped
- 15 oz kidney beans
- 30 oz pork and beans 2 cans
- 1 yellow onion chopped, substitute white onion
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp mustard
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a large slow cooker. Mix well and cook on Low heat for 6-7 hours or High heat for 3-4 hours. Stir a few times throughout the cooking process, if possible.
Notes
- Cook the bacon on the stove top or in the oven! My favorite way to cook a pound of bacon is by placing it in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F for 12-15 minutes. How much bacon you add is completely up to you!
- Replace crispy bacon with cooked ground beef or sausage, if desired, or omit meat entirely for a meat free recipe.
- Kidney beans can be replaced with pinto beans, cannellini, navy beans or great northern beans.
- A splash of apple cider vinegar will tame the sweetness if you find you've added too much sugar.
- Add up to 1/4 cup of your favorite bbq sauce to add an extra zing to the recipe.
- A few drops of liquid smoke add a nice smoky flavor to this dish.
- If you have leftover ham from a ham bone, chop some up and throw it in!
- Chopped green bell peppers add the perfect crunch and flavor.
- For a sweeter flavor, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
- And for fun, how about throwing in some sliced hot dogs!
