Cowboy Baked Beans Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 can (28 oz) 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:
- Preparation of the Beef:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks to ensure even browning and distribution of flavors.
- Adding Flavor:
- Once the beef is browned, stir in Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, onion & herb seasoning, and minced onions.
- Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and the flavors have melded well with the beef. This step forms the savory base for your baked beans.
- Combine the Ingredients:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large baking dish, combine the canned baked beans with the cooked beef mixture.
- Add chopped onions and green bell peppers to the dish, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Bake to Perfection:
- Cover the baking dish with foil or a lid and place it in the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 30 minutes, until the beans are bubbling and the bell peppers have softened. This baking process allows the flavors to meld together, creating a rich and hearty dish.
- Serving:
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of shredded cheese if desired.
- Serve warm as a delicious side dish, complemented with crusty bread or a simple green salad.
