Ingredients
- 1 large can B&M brand baked beans - 55 oz.
- 1/2 pound chopped bacon or more -- maple flavor is good
- 1 large onion -- chopped -- or-- 2 medium onions
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons French's prepared mustard
- 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
Preparation
Fry the bacon and onion until cooked and pour off the grease.
Combine all remaining ingredients in pan and mix.
Pour into casserole dish or shallow pan, cover, and bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for approximately 45 minutes.
Remove foil, stir, and continue cooking until thickened, (approximately 20 minutes).
This was my mom's recipe and I happen to think they are the best baked beans around. They certainly don't last long and this is a great dish to take to pot-lucks. Children always come back for more.
Please note: The diced bell pepper and the brown sugar are the secret ingredients that make this dish so special in my opinion.
