Sweet and tangy beans, made easy by a dump it and forget it approach.

No need to cook the beans for hours. Just start with a couple cans of baked beans and Dr them up (see what I did there?).

Add in bacon, onions, Dr. Pepper, plus some seasonings and you are on your way.

One of the key ingredients in this dish is the ground mustard. It gives the beans such a great tang and flavor. Trust me on this one and don’t leave it out.

      I haven’t tried diet Dr Pepper in the recipe, but don’t see why it wouldn’t work. And if you are wanting to cut down on the sugar/calorie level of the dish, feel free to lower the amount of brown sugar. My crew likes sweet baked beans, but I realize that isn’t for everyone. Happy cooking! 🙂

      Hi Amber! I usually make these beans in the oven first and then take them/reheat them in a crockpot for family potlucks. Without the baking process the beans may have more liquid then what you want. If making directly in the crockpot make sure to drain the baked beans and also cut back on the liquid amounts in the recipe.

      Kelly, I always use the ones in tomato sauce, but I don’t see a problem with any of the other “flavors” as I drain the beans so that the final product doesn’t have too much liquid.
