Ingredients

  • - 2 1-pound (or 15-1/2 ounce) cans pork and beans
  • - 1 pound bacon
  • - 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • - 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • - 2 tablespoons molasses
  • - 2 tablespoons catsup
  • - 1/2 teaspoon dried mustard

How To Make cheatin' beans

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F. Drain the liquid from the beans. Remove and discard that token scrap of pork fat (if that's what it really is) they put in each can. Put the beans in a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Step 2
    Fry the bacon, remove it from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Sauté the onion in the bacon drippings until it is transparent. Remove onion with a slotted spoon and add to beans.
  • Step 3
    In a small bowl, blend the brown sugar, molasses, catsup and dried mustard.
  • Step 4
    Break or tear the bacon into 1-inch pieces and add to beans. Add the brown sugar mixture, and stir gently until all ingredients are incorporated.
  • Step 5
    Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring once.
