This is another recipe I tried from America's Most Wanted Recipe book ....BBQ Beans. I have never had the beans at Hard Rock Cafe, but I figured if they were in the book, they must be pretty good. I have eaten there several times, but it's been quite awhile and I can't remember what I did have!
The beans smelled delicious while they were cooking, and I couldn't wait to try them. They were great....very rich and tangy!
Hard Rock Cafe BBQ Beans
two 15 oz. cans of pinto beans, with liquid
2 tsp. cornstarch
2 Tbsp. water
1/2 c. ketchup
1/3 c. white vinegar
1/4 c. dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp. diced onion
1 tsp. yellow mustard
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 c. chopped cooked bacon for garnish
Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and set aside. Put all the rest of the ingredients in a 2 quart casserole, add the cornstarch mixture and stir. Bake at 350 for 90 minutes, or until sauce thickens, stirring every 30 minutes. Serve with crumbled bacon on top.
This is a great side dish Laurie! I wish to you a very Happy and Prosperous New Year!
ReplyDeleteThat would be one fantastic side dish to any meal.
ReplyDeleteBarbecued beans instead of baked. Now there's something different!
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm so impressed you made these. I buy a can and open them up. I've never made my own sauce like this.
ReplyDeleteI just got back from Nashville and had the baked beans at the Hard Rock Cafe. I don't know if they are the same as they were in 2011 but they were dang good! I will try this recipe and see how they compare.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe is awesome with pulled pork added to the beans, before putting them in oven to bake, make sure your pulled pork is very tender...
