Southern Baked Beans with Pineapple
Southern Baked Beans with Pineapple also include bacon, French-Fried Onions & Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce! They are absolutely amazing and perfect for potlucks and summer holidays.
Ingredients
- 4 2 1/2-lb. cans pork and beans undrained (10 lbs.) (I used three 55-oz. containers Bush’s baked beans with bacon and brown sugar)
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 tbsp. prepared mustard
- 6 strips thick-sliced bacon fried crisp (I prefer Wright’s)
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 6 oz. can French's Fried onions
- 1 cup barbecue sauce (I used Sweet Baby Rays)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 20 oz. can crushed pineapple undrained
Instructions
- Mix beans, garlic, mustard, molasses, BBQ sauce, crushed pineapple and brown sugar.
- Pour into a very large 10x15” (or larger) greased baking dish.
- Crumble fried bacon and mix together with Fried onions.
- Sprinkle on top of beans.
- Bake at 350 for about 1 hour.
- Cover with foil and bake another 1-2 hours until beans thicken.
Notes
NOTE: I microwave the bacon on high heat for about one minute per slice. Since this was thick-sliced bacon it took 6 minutes 45 seconds to cook the bacon sufficiently.
NOTE: I covered the casserole with foil after an hour to prevent over-browning the French fried onions.
NOTE: This large amount is great if you’re taking the beans to a potluck. I would cut the recipe down to about a fourth of this amount to feed a family of six.
