Bacon pineapple jalepeno baked beans
Ingredients:
8 ounces sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup sweet red bell pepper
4 cans (16 ounces each) beans(white, pinto, black, kidney)
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 or 2 diced jalepeno peppers
1/4 cup chili sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a 3-quart Dutch oven.
Cover and cook over medium low heat for at least 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Serves 12.
If you have a smoker you can(should) do this:
Place the beans in an aluminum disposable pan and place them in the smoker right under the meat that is being smoked so the drippings fall into the beans. That puts them over the top!
Thanks to http://noexcusesbbq.com/ for the idea.

Thanks for the head nod. I’m going to try this variation out next time I smoke some beans; the combination of pineapple and jalapenos sounds too good to resist.

Great beans, and a great tip on the pan under the meat.

I’m gonna try this. Looks really good. I usually grill my steak in cast iron grill griddle in gas stove with just salt but not in the frying pan in the charcoal grill. Thanks for the tip!
