Sharing is caring!

These baked beans are a perfect side dish to so many different meals! A must have for all the summer barbecues coming up.

Summer gatherings will soon be in full swing, and these baked beans are one of those summertime side dishes that everybody loves. This recipe combines a little sweetness with a little spice the perfect combination. They’re sure to be gobbled up at your next barbecue or potluck.

Here is the link to my favorite cast iron pan that I use for just about everything. I love that I can use it on the stove, in the oven and on the grill.

Tips for making these baked beans:

• Par cooked bacon is best as to make sure it will be crispy when the beans are done.
• I like to use a cast iron skillet, but a 8×8 baking dish will work too.
• Drain half of the sauce from the pork and beans, so the beans aren’t to soupy.

Sometimes when it’s to hot to turn on my oven, I just throw the skillet on my gas grill, turns out perfect every time. The beans stay warmer for longer being in the cast iron skillet, nobody likes cold beans.

These baked beans are the perfect side dish to some of my most popular recipes.

• Bacon Wrapped Cheese Stuffed Hotdogs
• Grilled Tri Tip with Onions and Peppers
• Spicy Teriyaki Steak Kebabs
• Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwich with Chipotle Slaw
