Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large Dutch oven, combine the baked beans, onion, bell pepper, and the bacon. Season with chili powder, Worcestershire, vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, garlic powder and salt. Add cayenne if using.
- Cover and bake for one hour in the oven.
- You can uncover the second 1/2 hour if you like your beans on the thick side.
- I have also made these in the crock pot on high for 2-3 hours depending on how thick you like them.
CARLA'S BEST-EVER BAKED BEANS
This is the only way I make my baked beans, and now it's the only way everyone that has ever eaten them makes their baked beans. I can't believe a similar recipe wasn't already published! Everyone loves these, and they are SOOO easy. Intead of a fresh chopped onion and green bell pepper, I use a frozen chopped red, green and yellow bell pepper and onion blend. I couldn't get it to recognize that igredient, so I just wrote 1 pepper and 1 onion... I keep the bell pepper and onion blend in my freezer at all times, and use them in a lot of dishes.

Tips for the Best Baked Beans:
- Use dried beans: Dried beans are more flavorful and economical than canned beans. They also have a better texture when baked.
- Soak the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight helps to soften them and reduces the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 2 minutes, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Use a variety of beans: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of beans in your baked beans. This will give them a more complex flavor and texture.
- Add flavorings: There are many different ways to flavor baked beans. Some popular options include bacon, ham, onions, garlic, brown sugar, molasses, and ketchup. Feel free to experiment until you find a combination that you like.
- Bake the beans low and slow: Baked beans are best when they are cooked low and slow. This allows the flavors to develop and the beans to become tender.
Conclusion:
Baked beans are a classic comfort food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning, you can make the best baked beans that you've ever tasted.
