How to Make Sausage Baked Beans

  1. Crumble 1 pound of sausage and chop 4 slices of bacon. Fry in a large skillet over medium heat until cooked through and browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Remove sausage and bacon from skillet, reserving 2 tablespoons of the drippings. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour off any excess grease from the skillet, leaving behind the reserved drippings.
  4. In a 2-quart casserole dish, combine the cooked sausage, bacon, onions, 2 (15-ounce) cans of baked beans (drained), 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon molasses, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup of beef broth.
  5. Bake, covered, at 375°F (190°C) for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until heated through and slightly browned on top.
  6. **Slow Cooker Option:** Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until beans are tender. About 2 hours before serving, remove the lid and allow to continue to simmer.
