Dad's Baked Beans with a kick.
4 cans of pork and beans.
1 pkg of bacon.
1 medium sized onion.
1 large bell pepper.
2-3 cups of brown sugar.
Ketchup.
Mustard.
Worcestershire sauce.
Dave's Gourmet Insanity Sauce.
Cut the bacon into small bits. This is best down with very cold bacon. Place this in a 8-10 quart oven safe pot. (Dutch oven) over medium heat on the stove top burner. Dice the onion and the pepper and add them to the bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is soft and the bacon is no longer raw. Add the pork and beans and two cups of brown sugar. Add around 1 cup of ketchup, a couple of table spoons of mustard, and acouple of table spoons of Worcestershire Sauce. Stir until well blended. Taste. Add ketchup or sugar to achieve the desired balance of sweet versus tangy. (This is somewhat a personal preference, but that is how I cook-to taste).
Depending on who you are cooking for, add 0-4 drops of Insanity Sauce to the pot and mix it in. Place the pot in the oven at low heat, (200 to 250 deg), for 4-6 hours. Stir every hour to minimize scorching the beans on the bottom of the pot.
