Categories     Side

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

12-14 bacon slices (cooked and diced)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 Tablespoon maple syrup
2 (53 ounce) cans pork and beans
1/3 cup root beer
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 jalapeños (sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray a 9 x 9 inch baking pan (or 9 x 13 inch pan) with non stick cooking spray.
  • Cook bacon over the stove until desired doneness (I like mine crunchy, but I usually do it a little underdone, because it bakes in the oven as well).
  • After the bacon is cooked, crumble it up into a bowl and add black pepper and maple syrup. Toss until well combined.
  • In a larger bowl, combine the baked beans, root beer, brown sugar, molasses and cayenne pepper.
  • Add in half of the bacon crumbles.
  • Pour the mixture into the sprayed pan. Sprinkle the rest of the bacon on top, as well as the jalapeños if desired.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until the center is heated through, and the edges begin to bubble.
  • Remove from oven and eat warm.

ROOT BEER BAKED BEANS WITH BACON RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Root Beer Baked Beans with Bacon Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 18

BEANS:
4 strips thick-sliced bacon, diced
SWEAT:
2 cups diced onions
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 tablespoons fresh garlic, minced
DEGLAZE:
2 cups root beer
2 cans pinto beans (15-ounces each), drained and rinsed
1 can tomato purée (10.75-ounces)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons each, Worcestershire sauce and cider vinegar
1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
1/2 teaspoon each, Tabasco sauce, root beer extract, and kosher salt
TOPPING, PULSE:
3 slices white bread, buttered
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. For the beans, cook bacon in a nonstick skillet until crisp; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and discard all but 1 tablespoon drippings. Sweat onions, bell pepper, and garlic in drippings over medium heat until soft, 5 minutes. Deglaze skillet with root beer and bring to a boil; cook until root beer nearly evaporated, 10 minutes. Stir in beans, tomato purée, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire, vinegar, mustard, Tabasco, root beer extract, salt, and bacon; bring to a simmer. Transfer beans to a 2-quart baking dish. For the topping, pulse bread in a food processor to crumbs. Add parsley; pulse to combine. Top beans with bread crumb mixture; bake until topping is toasted and beans are bubbly, 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of beans. Dried beans are the best choice for this recipe, as they hold their shape better than canned beans. Navy beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans are all good options.
  • Soak the beans overnight. This will help to soften them and reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Use a variety of seasonings. The key to flavorful baked beans is to use a variety of seasonings. Brown sugar, molasses, and bacon are all classic additions, but you can also add other spices, such as chili powder, cumin, or smoked paprika.
  • Bake the beans low and slow. The best way to achieve tender, flavorful baked beans is to bake them low and slow. Bake them at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 2 hours, or until the beans are tender.
  • Add additional ingredients for extra flavor. Once the beans are tender, you can add additional ingredients for extra flavor. Some popular options include chopped onions, bell peppers, or corn. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt for a creamy finish.

Conclusion:

Root beer baked beans are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover root beer, and they can be served as a main course or a side dish. With a few simple tips, you can make the best root beer baked beans that will be a hit with your family and friends.
