Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 4 (15 ounce) cans pork and beans
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 green pepper, diced
- 1 pound bacon, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven or smoker to 325 degrees F.
- Chop bacon and fry in a large pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high by stirring with a wooden spoon until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels using a slotted spoon, then remove all but about 1/4 cup of the bacon drippings.
- Add the onion and green pepper to the pan with the bacon grease and sauté over medium heat until they have softened and begin to caramelize, around 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook and stir for another 30 seconds.
- Add beans, reserved bacon, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and black pepper and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then transfer the pan to the oven or smoker if using a large, oven safe cast iron skillet, or pour the beans into a large 9x13-inch pan first before placing in the oven or smoker.
- Bake for 1-2 hours until the beans are hot and bubbly and have achieved the thickness you desire. Keep in mind that the beans will continue to thicken slightly as they cool.
