YOUR RESOURCE FOR EVERYTHING YODER SMOKERS
Serve up a generous side of Smoked Baked Beans at your next cookout, loaded with layers of heat, sweetness, tangy flavors, and plenty of savory bacon. Barbecue is as much about the sides as the stars of the show, and these bubbly and sticky beans will demand center stage next to your smoked meats. Barbecue and pit beans go together like brisket and beer. Combining salty bacon with sweet shallots, the kick of jalapeno and chipotle, and Smoky Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce, this recipe will be the one you go to again and again.

INGREDIENTS
- ½ pound smoked thick-cut bacon, diced
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 shallots, diced
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped (optional)
- 2 cans baked beans, 28-ounces
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup Smoky Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce
- 1 cup chopped brisket, pulled pork, or other smoked meat (optional)
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large cast iron pan or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until the fat is rendered and it just starts to become crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with a paper towel.
- Add in the diced jalapeno, red bell pepper and shallots. Cook for about 3-4 minutes in the bacon fat until slightly softened.
- Add in the tomato paste and chipotles, stirring to incorporate. Cook for a couple of minutes to make sure the raw flavor of the tomato paste is cooked out.
- Pour in the beans, apple cider vinegar, and BBQ sauce. Turn the heat down and bring everything to a simmer for about 5 minutes. Taste to adjust the bbq beans for flavor.
- Transfer the bbq beans to a large foil baking pan and top with the crispy bacon. Smoke the bbq beans at 250°F for about 2 hours, stirring every 30-45 minutes.
- Taste the smoked baked beans. They can continue to cook longer if you prefer a stronger smoker flavor, otherwise they will be ready to serve just after 2 hours.
