Growing up, my mom used to make these for any parties, BBQ’s, picnics, etc. Every time she would make these, I would always scoop tons onto my plate. They have definitely been a favorite of mine for years!! Not only are these packed with flavor, but they are incredibly simple to make as well. This recipe can be doubled and put into a 9×13 baking pan if serving a lot of people!! Using only 5 ingredients, this is definitely an easy side dish!! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- (2) 16-18 oz cans of baked beans
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 6 slices of bacon, cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup ketchup
Directions:
- Grease an 8×8 baking pan.
- Mix together the beans, brown sugar, dry mustard, and ketchup.
- Pour into the baking pan.
- Place sliced bacon pieces (uncooked) on top of the beans.
- Place baking pan in a preheated oven, 325, and bake for about 2 hours.

Thanks that sounds just a perfcet side dish at the BBQ.
Definitely 🙂
Our family made a similar dish but add chopped green onions, celery and green peppers. Drain beans first. Add prepared mustard and brown sugar in proportion desired as to tartness or sweetness. Do not add ketchup! Finish as u said. I cover mine with foil for part of baking.
Oh yum!! I love the changes you do!! Ill need to try that next time, 🙂
Almost exactly how I’ve been making them for years. I add a little chopped green pepper & onion. My family’s favorite.
Great idea on the peppers and onion!!! So glad they are your family’s favorite as well!!
We have used the same recipe but added onion and fried lean ground round lb hamburger meat cook the onion in the hamburger meet before you. Add to beans
Oh yum!!! Sounds like great additions to the beans, 🙂
Do you Russians of baked beans (like Bush’s) or regular pork and beans?
I like to use the Bush’s beans 🙂
Yum! Will be making this weekend.
Oh awesome! Keep me posted how it turns out! Hope you have a wonderful 4th of July
will have to try these baked beans ,
Definitely!! So easy to make and incredibly flavorful!!
Have you ever tried this and then just sprinkled cooked bacon bits on top before cooking?? Or tried it without the bacon?? Just curious. Thanks!!

I have tried that a few times and it has been just as yummy! Either way works great!!
says to put in a 8×8 pan, but picture shows it’s 9×11 pan.Which one is it?
Yep, 8 x 8 is perfect. I doubled the recipe for the picture because I had gone to a BBQ and needed to bring a bigger dish. Enjoy!
Can these be made a day ahead of time and then reheated/warmed in a crock pot the day of?
For sure! I have done that several times and it is great!
I cooked my bacon ahead of time on accident. So should I still bake it in the oven for 2 hours?
No problem at all!! I would decrease the time to about an hour, but its not a problem to go longer! Just eye it until its all bubbly and warmed through!
So if I’m doubling the recipe to make it it a 9×13 dish do I cook for longer than 2 hours?!
Nope, you’re just cooking the bacon basically, as well as warming the beans up, so 2 hours is perfect whether one batch or two!
If you wanted to cook in crock pot. How long would you need it to be on – High or Low??Having a barbecue tomorrow and need to know soon!! Thanks!!
If in a crockpot, put on high for about 4 hours or low for about 6-8 hours! Enjoy!
