You will know why this dish has this name once you give it a try! So much flavor in these meaty baked beans.
I don’t need a man or ever want to land a new one, even so these beans are sure worth trying. Another funny recipe name that’s similar is blueberry boy bait, that looks like a good recipe too.
Pretty simple ingredients go into these beans. Basically the recipe is doctoring up canned baked beans, which is fine to me because I love the texture and flavor of canned baked beans but they need a few things added to make them great. Below is what the recipe looks like before cooking:
And here is after:
I’m sure I will get a few remarks on social media about why I would cook canned beans even longer. As you can see in the 2 above photos the beans look thicker and have so much flavor after cooking together with the other ingredients. They still have great texture and held up their shape after 7 hours of cooking.
The hot sauce is optional, I used 1 tablespoon of our favorite hot sauce Tapatio and it made these beans have quite the kick, which my husband and I don’t mind. Leave out the hot sauce and make sure to buy mild taco seasoning if you don’t like spicy foods.
This meal can be served as a side dish or is hearty enough to be a main dish with a side of cornbread.

My husband and I love this recipe!!!!
Thanks!
I have loved all of your recipes that I have tried, but this one not so much. I find there is an after taste & think it’s starting out with baked beans, then adding more baked bean ingredients on top. Can you suggest another type of canned bean to start with?
I just used regular pork and beans. love mine
dark brown sugar or light?
I use light though dark is fine.
i am making it now had to sub the green peppers for celery hubby doesn’t like peppers also left out the bacon can’t have grease lol but put extra hamburger in
A long way, you can finish step by step, and then you can’t reach without a foot
Is this recipe suitable for freezing?
Yes, will be fine.
This and engagement chicken should do the trick!
LOL, right?!
