Keri's Hog-Apple Baked Beans

These beans are truly the most fantastic baked beans we have ever had. I can't even begin to describe them. I even had them for lunch as a main dish.


We used leftover smoked pulled pork, but you can substitute crumbled cooked sausage if you don't have any on hand.

I found this recipe on the BBQ Brethren forums, a great place for BBQ-related discussions. Many thanks to Keri for posting this recipe! The original recipe made enough for a party. We didn't need so much, so the recipe below is cut back.

  • 3 slices bacon, diced

  • 1/2 can apple pie filling (chop larger apple pieces)
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1/4 green pepper, chopped
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 T Worcestershire sauce (I used Cajun Power)
  • 1 T prepared mustard
  • 1/2 t cayenne pepper (or to taste)

1. Preheat oven to 325° F.

2. Brown the bacon in a large skillet. Remove and drain.

3. Saute onion and green pepper in the bacon grease. Add in remaining ingredients.
