What’s everybody’s trick to doctoring up a couple cans of Bush’s Original baked beans?

[CandySueQ]

Plain yellow mustard and a glug of sweet BBQ sauce, stir well and cook in the OG with Eckrich skinless sausage. Whatever is left over goes for lunch the next day. Cut sausage into bite sized pieces. (I especially like jalapeno and cheddar!)

[Porkenstein]

I don't use hamburger meat but do use some crumbled Italian sausage, bourbon, some dijon, garlic, some of my favorite spices and maybe some pork rub. Of course cracked pepper. I kind of "wing" it but the Italian sausage, bourbon, garlic, are always the main staples.

That sounds great. Also, great Pitmaster Club name!

Brown sugar, Maple syrup, seared pork belly and white onion.

[Allon]

Molasses, sautéed white onion, brown sugar.

maybe a dash of cinnamon...

You knew it was coming...

[Prof Bunky]

If as a side? Didn't read it all but some ketchup, brown sugar, onion, and half a can of diced green chilis. Maybe a little Q-shake.

Meat of choice if more of a main dish.

Roy knows my secret, but he's loyal and won't say what it is.

Park them under your pork butt for a while cooking!

A can of apple pie filling plus other stuff makes great farty Bushes beans.

Mix onion, bell pepper, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce with baked beans, then top with diced raw bacon. Put into smoker or oven until bacon is cooked and rendered. Super yummy and gets devoured every time.

Any one of our much-loved Mr. Bones ' three recipes here on The Pit.

I cobbled together an amalgam of the three and that's what I use. He liked Hy-Vee beans, mostly, though. Here are his original, fun-to-read recipes.

P.S. Huskee , when I click on the @link for Mr. Bones in this post , his avatar no longer appears in the member page. Thankfully, it's still there on his posts, though. Is this how it works for an In Memoriam member? Just wondering...

[klflowers]

I read through those again and realized how much I miss Bonsey. Thanks for posting the links

Molasses

Favorite BBQ Rub
Brown Sugar
Bacon
Hamburger
Hot Breakfast Sausage

These actually become more of a main dish instead of a side...HA!!

Some of these posts went from doctoring up a can to down right surgery.
I need to try some of these recipes.
