Baked beans are such a classic dish, and I love how many varieties there are! Depending on your tastes and where you live, your beans might be more savory, more sweet, or more smoky. These beans are a great combination of the 3! You get the savory flavor from the sauteed onions and peppers, sweetness from the brown sugar, and the smokiness from the molasses and of course, the bacon ????
You can cook your bacon any way you’d like, you’re going to want to use about 10 strips. I chose to bake mine since I have zero patience with frying bacon lol. I also seasoned my bacon with a sprinkle of pepper, chili powder, dried rosemary and brown sugar. That’s my signature bacon seasoning, it’s SO addicting!
