Ingredients:
1/4 pound breakfast sausage or bacon, crumbled |
1/4 cup diced onion |
1/4 pound pulled or chopped bar-b-q'd pork shoulder or smoked pork butt |
4 (16-ounce) cans store-bought pork and beans |
1/4 cup sweet bar-b-q sauce or willingham's w' ham sweet'n sassy sauce |
1/2 cup molasses |
1 1/2 tablespoons mild seasoning mix or willingham's w'ham mild seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke (optional) |
Directions:
1. Start the grill, allowing it to reach a temperature of 250 degrees, or pre heat the oven to 350 degrees. 2. 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 and beans, sauce, molasses, seasoning mix, and liquid smoke, if using. Stir well and transfer to a deep casserole. The casserole 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 and stir well. 3. Cook on the grill, uncovered, for 3 1/2-hours, or in the oven, covered, for 2 1/2-hours until hot and bubbling and the flavors are well blended. |
