Beans Don't Burn In The Kitchen, Beans Don't Burn on The Grill

Barbecue baked beans are as common a visitor to the summer picnic table as ants are. Of course, the beans are more welcome.

Trevor was helping smoke some spare ribs last weekend on his offset smoker, so I thought I'd make some beans to go with them.


There are an infinite number of BBQ baked bean recipes but this is the quick and easy version my mother taught me eons ago.

Easy BBQ Baked Beans
My momma

1 28 oz can Bush's Baked Beans (Homestyle)
1/2 cup sweet BBQ sauce (I prefer Blues Hog brand for this)
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 ea onion, diced (or in this case, a boiler onion sliced into rings)
1 Tbs BBQ rub (Whatever your favorite one is)
1 TBS Worchestershire sauce
1/2 cup chopped BBQ pork or brisket

Mix all ingredients in a small casserole dish and bake for 1 hour at 350f.


Like I said, quick and EASY.

For me, I have to have meat in my beans, it just isn't the same with out it. I also like more of a spicy kick but the one I listed here is very mild for my family.

What do you like to put in your baked beans?
