Classic Barbecue Baked Beans
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1/2 cup dark rum or water
- 1 vidalia onion, chopped
- 1 red or green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 can (4 oz.) green chili peppers, chopped
- 1/4 lb. barbecue beef brisket, burnt ends or rib meat (approx. 2 cups)
- 5 cans baked beans (any variety)
- 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 2 cups KC Masterpiece® Kansas City Classic Barbecue Sauce®
- 1/4 cup water or beer
Prep
- In a small bowl, soak raisins in the dark rum (or water) for about 1 hour.
- Chop the onions, bell pepper and green chili peppers.
- Preheat the oven to 225°F.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat.
Cook
- Sauté the onions, bell pepper and green chili peppers until tender, about 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the raisins, cooked vegetables, meat scraps, baked beans, brown sugar, and the KC Masterpiece® sauce. Place the mixture into a large casserole dish and bake uncovered for 1 ½ - 2 hours. Add more water or beer as necessary to keep the beans from drying out.
- Remove the beans from the oven and mix well. Serve immediately.
Cooking tip:
Sautéing veggies beforehand helps bring out their flavor and adds more depth to your dish.
