A delightful twist on the classic baked beans recipe, perfect for gatherings or a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking throughout the dish.
Cook the ground beef, bacon, and onion in a large skillet until the beef is browned and the bacon is crispy. Drain any excess fat.
Cooking the bacon until crispy adds a delightful texture to the dish.
Grease a 9x13 baking dish lightly to prevent sticking.
Using a non-stick spray or a small amount of oil works well for greasing.
In a large bowl, mix the cooked meat mixture with the butter beans, kidney beans, brown sugar, white sugar, ketchup, mustard, and molasses until well combined.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Level the surface for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until bubbly and slightly caramelized on top.
Check halfway through baking to ensure the top doesn't over-brown.
Let the dish cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your hearty baked beans!
Allowing the dish to cool slightly helps the flavors settle.
