Julis Baked Beans
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef (sirloin or chuck)
1 pound good hickory-smoked bacon, cut in bite-size pieces (use ends and pieces or thick cut for best flavor and meatiness)
1 pound hickory-smoked sausage (such as Conecuh), cut in bite-size pieces
2 medium onions or 1 large Texas or yellow onion, chopped
3 large bell peppers, chopped (one each, red, yellow, and green)
4–6 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
4 1 lb 12 oz. Bush’s Original Baked Beans
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4–1/2 cup brown sugar, either dark or light
Large squirt of yellow mustard
1/3 jar Grandma’s Molasses
Spice Mix:
1 tbsp onion powder or granules
1 tbsp garlic powder or granules
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp Coleman’s Dry Mustard
1 tbsp red pepper seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
Preheat oven or grill to 375°F.
Prepare Spice Mix by combining all ingredients in a small bowl. Brown ground beef, season with Spice Mix, drain, and set aside.
Cook bacon in frying pan. It should not be crispy. Set aside.
Cook sausage until brown and set aside.
Sauté onions and peppers. Add minced garlic for the last minute or two so it doesn’t burn.
Once beef, bacon, sausage, and vegetables are ready, combine in a large baking pan with remaining ingredients.
Bake in oven for 45 minutes uncovered or on grill until heated through, about 30 minutes. You will know it is done once the sauce thickens and turns darker brown.
Keep wrapped in foil until ready to enjoy!
Note:
You can add some diced ham and a little hot sauce for flavor as well.
