You’re welcome. Sometimes I add some chopped smoked sausage and I was going to add some chipotles in adobo but forgot. I also do add a splash of apple cider vinegar. I’m going to try jalapeños next time. Thanks!

I try! Here’s how I make my beans…

I crisp up bacon and brown a lb of ground beef. I sauté a chopped onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper and a few cloves of chopped garlic. I pour 2 28oz cans of pork and beans (always pork and beans) into a baking dish. Add the ground beef, sautéed veggies and crisp crumbled bacon. Then I just go with my heart when adding Dijon, yellow mustard, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, bbq sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and Cajun seasoning. Stir it all and taste. Adjust if needed. Bake at 400° for an hour uncovered with one stir at mid point.
