Baked Beans

Baked Beans

1 large can (31 oz) Pork and Beans

1 large onion chopped (or 2 Tbsp minced onion soaked in cold water for 5 minutes...with your hand, take onions from water and squeeze out excess water before adding to recipe)

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 tsp dry mustard

1/2 lb. bacon

Mix together all ingredients except bacon and pour into a casserole dish or 9X9 pan. Add uncooked bacon strips to the top. Bake at 200 for 2 hours. Cut up bacon into small pieces and mix in. Serves 8. (This is my preferred method.)

If you are in a hurry, you can microwave the beans (minus the bacon) instead of baking in the oven. Make sure it is in a microwavable dish, cover with wax paper and cook 3-4 minutes on high and then 10-12 minutes on medium low. Cook bacon in a frying pan and add to beans.
