The Baked Beans Your Cookout is Needing

Oooh, I’m getting so excited for summer cookouts, y’all! I can almost smell burgers on the grill now! And since we’re gearing up for a summer of outdoor eating, I just had to share my Easy Baked Beans. This baked beans recipe has been at our summer cookouts for as long as I can remember. Sweet, saucy and slow cooked for maximum deliciousnes, it’s a side dish everyone will love.

Saucy pork and beans make the base for this sweet and savory side. Thick bacon, fresh peppers and onions, and of course plenty of brown sugar to sweeten the deal. The recipe is so simple and so, so tasty. It comes together quickly and bakes up bubbly and impossible to resist.

How to Make Easy Baked Beans

First preheat the oven to 350°F. Then grease a 3 quart or 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Cook bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove and set aside. Keep the bacon drippings in the pan.

Add the chopped onion and green pepper to the pan with the bacon drippings and let sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.

Cut the bacon into small pieces. Reserve about 2 tablespoons to garnish the top of the beans with.

In a large bowl, mix together the beans, the remaining bacon pieces, brown sugar, ketchup, yellow mustard, sauteed onions and green pepper. Spoon into prepared dish. Sprinkle with the reserved bacon pieces.

Bake, uncovered, for about 60-75 minutes or until beans are thickened and bubbly. Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

More Side Dishes to Complete Your Summer Cookout

Crumbled cornbread, fresh veggies, ranch dressing and bacon take this delicious Layered Cornbread Salad to new heights. Better make a double recipe because everyone will be coming back for seconds! For a zesty summer side dish, this Pesto Parmesan Grilled Corn hits all the right notes. Sweet corn, nutty pesto, savory parmesan cheese, and fresh basil. It’s perfection! This Watermelon Feta Salad with Mint and a Balsamic Glaze is so light and refreshing. It’s the perfect side dish to take to a summer get-together! Super crisp oven-baked Sweet and Salty Potato Chips made with a mix of salt & peppered regular potatoes and sweetly seasoned sweet potatoes. Irresistible!
