Molasses Bbq Beans Recipes

BBQ BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat an oven-proof heavy-bottom pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, until the fat has started to render and the bacon is beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and bell pepper and continue to cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the canned beans, barbecue sauce, molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire, brown sugar, mustard powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the pot to the oven and bake (uncovered) until the sauce thickens and the beans on top begin to brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

PERFECT BBQ BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and mesquite seasoning until the meat is no longer pink, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease, and transfer the meat mixture to a large baking dish. Stir in the baked beans, molasses, brown sugar, barbeque sauce, dry mustard powder, and cayenne pepper, and mix until any small lumps of brown sugar have dissolved.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the beans are bubbling and the flavors have blended, about 20 minutes.

• Over high heat, bring beans to a rolling boil for 2 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, cover pan and let stand for 1 hour.
• Uncover pan, breing contents back to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender (1 to 1 1/2 hours).
• As necessary, add more water to keep beans well covered.
• Drain beans well, reserving liquid.
• In a 2 1/2 quart bean pot (or casserole) combine molasses, brown sugar, mustard, ketchup and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Add drained beans. Then stir in enough reserved cooking liquid to cover beans.

• One one side of pot, push whole onion down into beans.
• Cut several gashes in the salt pork and push it down into beans on other side of the pot.

• Bake until beans are bubbling (about 1 hour).
• Reduce heat to 250 degrees and continue to bake for 6 to 8 hours more, stirring every hour or so.
• As beans cook, they will absorb liquid.
• Continue cooking, adding reserved liquid (or water) a little at a time to keep beans moist, but not soupy.
• Baked beans are done when thick and fragrant, with a deep, brownish red color.
• When serving, remove and discard onion, while keeping in sliced salt pork if desired.
