• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat an oven-safe pot over medium-high heat and cook the bacon for 4-5 minutes or until halfway cooked through. Do not cook the bacon all the way.

CHIPOTLE BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Saute the onion, green pepper, and prosciutto in 2 tablespoons olive oil, in a large heavy pot, until the onions and peppers are soft and the prosciutto is browned.
• Add the entire can of beans into a large pot along with remaining. ingredients, except the pureed chipotle.
• Divide the beans evenly between two ovenproof casseroles (I covered two ovenproof mixing bowls with foil).
• I added the pureed chipotle to one of the mixing bowls, then covered them and baked them at 375 degrees for an hour.
• Uncover and cook for another 20 minutes.
• Stir them about halfway through the cooking time, and then again when you uncover them.
• If you so desire, add a little chopped fresh cilantro to the chipotle version.

BOURBON AND DP BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix brown sugar, paprika, mustard, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl. Whisk in pepper soda, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce until brown sugar is dissolved.
• Cut 4 slices of bacon into small strips. Cook and stir in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until almost crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, reserving bacon grease.
• Stir onion into the bacon grease in the Dutch oven; cook and stir until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Pour in bourbon, stirring to scrape up browned bits off the bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir bacon strips back in.
• Pour brown sugar mixture and baked beans into the Dutch oven. Simmer until beans are heated through, about 15 minutes. Arrange remaining 4 slices of bacon on top of the beans.
• Bake in the preheated oven, covered, until beans are bubbly and sauce is syrupy, about 3 hours.

THE BEST BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until browned and crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the paprika and toast, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add the tomato sauce, molasses, bourbon, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes.
• Add the beans and 8 cups water. Bring to a boil, then cover the pot and transfer to the oven. Bake until the beans are tender, about 3 hours. (If the beans are still slightly firm, continue cooking, stirring every 45 minutes and adding more water if necessary to just cover.)
• Once the beans are tender, uncover and increase the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Bake until the beans are thick and browned, about 1 more hour. (Again, if the beans need more time, continue cooking, stirring occasionally and adding more water if necessary.) Remove from the oven and thin with water if necessary.
