• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a non-stick pan, then gently fry the onion and bacon together for 5-10 mins until the onions are softened and just starting to turn golden. Stir in the sugar, tomatoes, stock and seasoning to taste, then simmer the sauce for 5 mins. Add the beans, then simmer for another 5 mins until the sauce has thickened. Serve with the wedges.

SPICY BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
• Drain beans, and add them along with the canned and fresh tomatoes, maple syrup, brown sugar, bay leaf, orange rind and crushed peppercorns. Stir in all but 1 tablespoon of the cilantro, and add 3 cups of water. Cover, and bring to a slow simmer. Place in the oven, and cook 2 hours.
• Add vinegar and salt to taste. Return to the oven 2 1/2 hours longer, until the liquid has been absorbed but the beans are still moist. Adjust seasonings, adding more vinegar and salt if needed. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro, and serve.

BETTER THAN BEST BAKED BEANS!

Steps:

• Fry bacon in frying pan.
• I cut into bite sized pieces with scissors before frying.
• As bacon fries, chop onions.
• When bacon is finished, remove from pan,drain and wrap in paper towels to absorb grease.
• Saute onions in bacon fat til translucent.
• Pour into strainer, but not necessary to rinse or pat with paper towel.
• For me, straining is enough.
• Pour canned beans into 6 Qt Crockpot.
• Stir in bacon, onions, ketchup, Salsa, Brown Sugar and cumin, mixing very well.
• Stir often.
• Cook on high for 3 hours, then switch to low for another two hours, well ahead of serving as it tastes even better the longer you allow the flavors to blend together.
• If I'm making them for a party, I make them early morning for that night or even the night before, cooking overnight in the crockpot.
• They will stay hot for a long time and you can just turn the crockpot back on a couple hours before serving.
• I taste them often as they're cooking and add more salsa and/or cumin to taste.
• We like to taste the cumin, but if you don't that's ok.
• Recipe is easily halved or doubled.
• I never measure anything- I add all ingredients for our taste preferences.
• Freezes VERY well and you can reheat in microwave or in crockpot once thawed.
• Leftovers are great the next day!
