John Willingham's Sweet & Sassy Beans
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 pound breakfast sausage or bacon -- Crumbled
1/4 cup onion -- diced
1/4 pound pulled or chopped smoked pork butt
4 pork 'n beans
1/4 cup Sweet Bar-B-Q Sauce
1/2 cup molasses
1 1/2 tablespoons W'ham Mild Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke -- optional
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage and onion over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes until the sausage is browned and the onion softened. Add the pork and cook for 2 to 3 minutes longer until the meat is just heated through. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the pork & beans, sauce, molasses, seasoning mix and liquid smoke, if using. Stir well and transfer into a deep casserole. The dish should be large enough to hold the mixture so that it is no deeper than 4 inches and no shallower than 2 inches. Add the sausage/pork mixture. Stir well.
Cook in the oven, covered, for 2-1/2 hours until hot and bubbling and the flavors are well-blended.
