Kick-Butt Baked Beans

  • This is no joke -- the secret to awesome baked beans is in a can of Coke! The syrup in the soda lends a sweet caramel flavor that brown sugar cannot match. Dump three or four 16-ounce cans of pinto beans (drained) into a bowl and stir in 1/2-cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard, 1 tablespoon each white vinegar and Worcestershire sauce and a can of Coke. Pour into an 8-by-8-inch greased pan and bake the beans at 375-degrees for an hour. *Note: Sugar free Coke will not work, but caffeine-free regular will.

Baked Bean Tidbit: Puritans cooked Boston Baked Beans for Saturday dinner and then ate the leftovers on Sunday with Boston brown bread.
