How to Make Best Ever Baked Beans

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, fry 1 medium chopped onion until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add 1 lb Italian sausage (casings removed) to the skillet and crumble, cooking until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  4. In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, combine the cooked sausage and onion with 2 (15-ounce) cans of baked beans, 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons molasses, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  6. Cover the pot and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  7. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
