Kerri's are great. This one ain't bad:
http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showpost.php?p=256589&postcount=1

1 lb ground beef
1/2 lb pork sausage
8 slices of bacon
4 lbs of pork n beans
6 oz honey
12 oz bbq sauce of choice
1 1/2 cup chopped onions
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 Tbsp Worchestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp dried mint
1 tsp tabasco

cooke the bacon and set aside. cook the beef and sausage and drain. crumble the bacon. mix everything together and put on the smoker for about 90 minutes or until the onions soften a little. this is more like a meal than a side dish.

Keri's Hog-Apple Baked Beans

3 or 4 slices bacon, diced
2 (16 oz) cans pork and beans, mostly drained (modified to 2 28-oz cans Bush's Baked Beans - see note below)
1/2 c. Blues Hog BBQ Sauce (or other sweet-spicy favorite)
1 lb. smoked leftover smoked pork or beef, more or less, or 1 lb crumbled cooked pork sausage
1 can apple pie filling (chop up the big chunks some)
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 c. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. Mustard (prepared)
1 tsp chipotle or cayenne powder (optional, to taste*)
1 tsp Blues Hog barbecue rub (or your favorite de jour)

Brown bacon, and saute onion and green pepper in bacon grease. Mix in remaining ingredients. Bake at 325º for 1 hour, or simmer on stovetop in large pot for 30 minutes if you don't have time to do them in the oven. Serves 12.

This recipe began life as APPLE PIE BAKED BEANS from somewhere on the web, but I think I've made enough changes to it now to claim it as my own. This is my standard for baked beans anymore.

*This is a rather spicy recipe due to the chipotle/cayenne powder. Feel free to leave it out if you'll be feeding those who prefer a less spicy taste.

Lately, I've been using two of the 28-oz cans of Bush's Original Baked Beans - I think I'm going to try it with the new Honey variety next. Happier with the results with these. -kc

Another update... Jack's Old South does something similar to this, but I understand that they use peach pie filling instead.

Does anyone have the recipe for the peach beans. If you do please PM with it. Thanks a bunch

Myron Mixon's is the peachy one.

Beans are kinda like fatties, ABT's, Stuffed loins, etc.
You can really let loose and create your own version--no real rules or secrets.
Almost anything works! :lol:
I tried Keri's with the apple, and I tried Myron's with peach.
Loved them both.

Myron Mixon's (Jack's Old South) recipe is here:
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_27741,00.html

This is some "stuff" from last week.
Bacon, pulled pork, chopped brisket, onion, green/red/yellow/orange bell peppers, chopped jalapeño, and ?????

Rendered it all down, added #10 can of Bush's Original beans, a 303 can of peaches cubed up, and a jar of peach marmalade I had laying around, some BBQ sauce, and some spices to include Emeril's Essence.

Put in smoker under pork for about 3 hours at 250 Deg.

GONE, GONE in a flash!

Everyone who eats my "beans" says they are a "meal"--not just a side dish :lol:

Just blend all the good recipes to make them your own and COOK ON! :lol:

I used to used canned beans as a base and build from there, however i got to thinking (can be dangerous) that if i am going to cook a piece of meet for 12 hours why not spend that much time cooking a really good pot of beans. I start with dried white beans. I soak them for a few hours and just make the sauce up a little runny. As it cooks in the smoker the beans keep soaking up the flavor. I also found putting the pot under the butts in the smoker helped as all the rendered fat(and flavor) that dripped from the beans. Combine that with the real smoke, and those were the best beans. The only thing i'll change next time is start with 3 pounds of dried beans instead of one.

eagle,
that sounds like a great idea. how much liquid to precooked bean weight should you expect to add to get the right bean texture?

Gotta go with Keri C.

I think I need to try the KERI C. beans.

#10 can of bush's beans - drain off part of liquid.
1 lb bacon diced and fried
1 lb pulled pork or brisket - chopped
1 sweet onion
yellow mustard, coleman's mustard, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, Q sauce, dark molasses

one or more or raisins, apples, peaches or apple or peach pie filling.

Cook under butts or ribs for an hour then move so no more fat drips in.

We only do Keri's now. The neighbor's request it weekly!
