Ingredients
- 2 cans baked beans (28 ounces each)
- ¾ cup barbecue sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 red onion (finely chopped)
- 1 green bell pepper (finely chopped)
- 8 lices Bacon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium high heat until cooked through and slightly crispy. Move the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to cool.
- Add the diced onions and pepper peppers to the skillet with the bacon grease and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, paprika and garlic powder.
- Stir in the baked beans and the sautéed onions and pepper.
- Pour the mixture in a baking dish (I used a 3 quart dish) and bake for 2 hours.
- When the beans are baking, chop the cooked bacon. Reserve a small amount of chopped bacon for the topping and stir the remaining bacon into the baked beans.
- Cook for 45-60 more minutes until the sauce of your beans cooks down to your desired consistency.
- Remove from the oven, let the beans set for 5-10 minutes. Then serve topped with the reserved chopped bacon and enjoy!

Notes
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- These beans can easily be made in the crock pot as well. Cook the bean mixture in the crock pot on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
