CPENDERS Recipe + Kansas Baked Beans

Sweet-and-spicy, 3-bean, baked beans. Substitute cayenne pepper for all or some of the chili powder if you like it spicier.

Ingredients

• ½ pound bacon, diced
• ½ pound ground beef
• 1 onion, diced
• ½ cup white sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup ketchup
• ¼ cup barbeque sauce
• 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
• 2 tablespoons molasses
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 (16 ounce) can butter beans, rinsed and drained
• 2 (16 ounce) cans pork and beans

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon, ground beef, and onion in the skillet until the bacon and ground beef are completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat, and transfer to a casserole dish.
3. Stir the white sugar, brown sugar, ketchup, barbeque sauce, mustard, molasses, chili powder, and black pepper together in a bowl; pour over the bacon mixture. Add the kidney beans, butter beans, and pork and beans; mix thoroughly.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until the liquid thickens, about 1 hour.
