Cowboy Baked Beans Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 can (28 oz) of Bush’s Baked Beans
• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon onion & herb seasoning
• 1/4 cup minced onions
• 1/2 cup chopped onions
• 1/2 cup chopped green bell peppers

Instructions:

1. Preparation of the Beef: Begin by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, ensuring it’s broken into small pieces as it cooks. This ensures an even distribution of flavors throughout the dish.
2. Adding Flavor: Once the beef is nicely browned, incorporate the Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, onion & herb seasoning, and minced onions. Cook for approximately 5 minutes until everything is well combined and the onions turn translucent. This step is essential for creating a robust base for your baked beans.
3. Combine the Ingredients: In a large baking dish, mix the cooked beef mixture with the canned baked beans. Add the chopped onions and green bell peppers, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
4. Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover the baking dish and place it in the oven. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the beans are bubbly and the bell peppers have softened. This baking process allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a deliciously rich taste.
5. Serving: Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve warm, optionally garnishing with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Cowboy Baked Beans pair excellently with crusty bread or a simple green salad. Enjoy!
