Southern Baked Beans

I got this from one of Paula Dean’s cookbooks. I like that you use pork and beans and just dress them up. Just a little different than some other recipes for baked beans I’ve tried. Easy to double or even triple for a large crowd.

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 lb bacon cut into 1/2 inch pieces

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Over the stove on a dutch oven, cook onion in a little bit of oil until soft.
  • Add Pork and beans, mustard, brown sugar, ketchup and lemon juice. Mix together.

Notes

Sometimes I cook the bacon first and then remove the grease. Gets rid of some of the fat.
