PEGGI'S BEST BAKED BEANS
My Mom made these beans since I could remember. I have made them for about 43 years now. Some aquaintences of ours where we used to live, owned a BBQ place. His wife made baked beans there also. He liked these so well, he would pay me to make him a big pot to take home. Hope you like them as well.

Steps:
- Adjust the oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Fry the regular chopped bacon in a large, deep skillet until the bacon has partially cooked and released about 1/4 cup drippings. Add the onions, peppers and jalapenos, and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the beans, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, ketchup, mustard and chipotles, and bring to a simmer. (If the skillet is not large enough, add the beans and heat to a simmer and then transfer to a large bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients). Pour the flavored beans into an aluminum pan. Top with the uncooked slices of bacon (you can halve the slices if you like). Then bake until the beans are bubbly and the sauce is the consistency of pancake syrup, about 2 hours. Let stand to thicken slightly and serve.
PEGGI'S FRIED GREEN BEANS
Hey.....I'm from the South; what more can I say? We fry everything! And...we use bacon in everything! You can use fresh, or canned green beans for this recipe & you will notice the difference over just green beans. The main picture is from fresh green beans (no mushrooms that day)& the other one is from canned green beans. They taste equally as good.

Steps:
- Cook bacon & onions in skillet until about 1/2 of the way browned.
- Add the mushrooms & continue cooking until all is about 2/3 of the way brown. Salt & pepper this.
- Next, add the green beans & turn heat to low & cover skillet. Leave it alone for about 5 minutes & then you can stir & continue cooking until all is slightly browned.
- Remove lid & kick up the heat to medium & continue cooking until the beans are done & have a crisper brown , but not burned look. About 30 minutes total. Note: Fresh beans will take a little longer. Also, if you use canned green beans, no need to salt the green beans, but if you use fresh, you can salt them the last few minutes.

KERI'S BAKED BEANS (THE WORLD'S BEST!)
I was trying to find a good baked bean recipe to bring over to a friends house for a party. I love barbecue, and I frequent a website called The Smoke Ring. The members on the site kept saying over and over again that Keri's Baked Beans were the best, so I decided to give them a try. Let me tell you, they are the BEST. Don't let the apple pie filling scare you... A big thank you goes to Keri for developing this recipe. Enjoy
