Cowboy Beans
Smoky baked beans with ground beef, bacon and brown sugar, slow-simmered until thick — browning the beef and bacon properly before adding anything else is where most of the flavour actually comes from.
Ingredients
Instructions
Brown the ground beef and diced bacon together in a large pot over medium-high heat, breaking up the beef as it cooks.
Continue cooking until well coloured all over.
Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the pinto beans, ketchup, brown sugar, mustard and Worcestershire, then simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
