How to Make Baked Beans With Bacon And Hot Dogs

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
  3. In a large bowl, set aside 2 (15-ounce) cans of baked beans.
  4. In a large skillet, cook 6 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
  5. Add 1 medium chopped onion to the skillet with the reserved bacon grease and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
  7. Drain the bacon grease and add the cooked bacon and onion mixture to the large bowl with the baked beans.
  8. Stir in 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar (adjust to taste), 2 tablespoons molasses, 1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder, 1 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
  9. Add 4-6 hot dogs, sliced lengthwise (adjust as desired).
  10. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
  11. Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish.
  12. Bake uncovered for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking time.
  13. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra bacon crumbles if desired.
