Let’s make Southern Baked Beans !

As  you can see these are very simple ingredients and you will have most of these things on hand already in your pantry or fridge. I generally always have brown sugar , ketchup , Worcestershire sauce , mustard , salt and pepper. It’s also a good chance I have bacon hanging around along with onions . Pretty much for this recipe all I need to buy is the canned beans and bell pepper. The less ingredients you have to buy and you are able to use what you have on hand , the more budget friendly a recipe it is .

Pour all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl except the bacon.

Stir until mixed together.

Pour into a baking dish and top with cubed bacon .

Cover with foil and baked in a preheat 350 degree oven for one hour . After and hour uncover and cake another 30 minutes.

These beans are best served warm .

Notes

If you like your beans thicker with less liquid feel free to drain some of the liquid from the beans in the beginning 

I use Bush Baked Beans but use your favorite , these are mine. 

These can be baked in a 9x13 dish if you don' t have the baking dish I have
