Southern baked beans! My FAVORITE summer side!! Made with ground beef. Super easy. So delicious. Always the first dish gone at a potluck.
This is my mom’s recipe for baked beans. And no baked beans even come close to these. No restaurant’s or person’s even compare to these.
They are out of this world.
The best part is they are so easy.
It starts with a couple cans of Bush’s Southern Pit Barbecue Grillin’ Baked Beans.
Then you doctor it up with ground beef, green bell peppers, onions, and brown sugar.
The baked beans get caramelized from the brown sugar. They can stand on their own thanks to the ground beef. And they get a zap of fresh flavor from the green peppers and onions.
You could probably try different brands of baked beans if you can’t find the Bush ones. But I’m not 100% sure how that would work. Because I have never tried a different brand.
Yes! Prepare the beans in the skillet until everything is combined. Then cover and refrigerate. Bake when you’re ready to make them!
Yes! Transfer to an airtight container. Defrost them in the fridge and reheat in the oven, in the crockpot or on the stovetop!
You could bring these to literally any cookout.
Or make burgers with this burger seasoning. These beans + corn on the cob would make the best summer cookout meal. And these ice cream sandwiches or strawberry shortcake cups for dessert!!
These turkey burgers or BBQ boneless chicken thighs would also be amazing.
If you aren’t wanting to grill, serve it with BBQ back back ribs.
