INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 lb homemade baked beans
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsps yellow mustard
  • 3 tbsps brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp  Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½  teaspoon salt or more to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika  optional
  • ¼ cup smoked chicken bits for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Brown the ground beef in a large saucepan, adding the onion when the beef is about halfway done. Drain the fat and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the beans, ground beef and onion, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar, and spices.
  • Mix gently until everything is well combined, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish and dot the top with the butter. Bake uncovered for 1 hour.
  • Let the beans rest for 10 minutes before serving, topped with the smoked chicken bits.

NOTES

    • Instead of using ordinary mustard, you can use a teaspoon of dry mustard.
    • You can also use an oven-safe Dutch oven, ideally nonstick, if you don't have a 9 x 13 baking pan.
    • Don't Overmix. Fold or stir the beans lightly to prevent soggy or mushy beans. When it comes to mixing beans, less is more.
    • Let the sauce sit for a few minutes before serving, as it will continue to thicken as it cools.
