How to Make Barbecued Butter Beans
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spray a 13x9 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Drain one (15-ounce) can of butter beans and add them to the prepared baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients: 1/2 cup your favorite barbecue sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the barbecue sauce mixture over the butter beans, stirring gently to coat evenly.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the beans are heated through and the sauce is bubbly and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through for even cooking and browning.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
