PERFECTLY BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Fry the regular chopped bacon in a large, deep skillet until the bacon has partially cooked and released about 1/4 cup drippings. Add the onions, peppers and jalapenos, and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the beans, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, ketchup, mustard and chipotles, and bring to a simmer. (If the skillet is not large enough, add the beans and heat to a simmer and then transfer to a large bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients). Pour the flavored beans into an aluminum pan. Top with the uncooked slices of bacon (you can halve the slices if you like). Then bake until the beans are bubbly and the sauce is the consistency of pancake syrup, about 2 hours. Let stand to thicken slightly and serve.

SPICY CHOCOLATE PORK AND BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Preheat an ovenproof saute pan with a lid over high heat.
• Working in batches, brown the pork on all sides in 2 tablespoons oil, then transfer to a bowl.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in the pan, then cook the onions, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and smoked paprika and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
• Add the chopped tomatoes, black-eyed peas, coconut water and the pork and bring to a simmer, stirring well. Cover and transfer to the oven. Bake, stirring occasionally, until pork is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Stir in the chocolate until it has melted. Serve with the basmati rice, avocado slices and cilantro.

SWEET AND SMOKY BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• In a heavy pot, cook the bacon over medium heat to render the fat, about 5 minutes. Discard all but 2 tablespoons fat.
• Add the onion, pepper, and garlic and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the beans, molasses, barbecue sauce, ketchup, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustards, vinegar, and liquid smoke. Simmer the beans, uncovered, until rich and thickly flavored, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Alternatively, place the baked beans in a deep baking dish and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes. Add salt, pepper, or any other ingredient to taste.
