Directions
9 STEPS
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2
In a large oven-safe skillet, cook 2 slices of bacon over medium-low heat until brown and crisp, then remove and set aside.
3
In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add the chopped onion, diced bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook for 5 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally.
4
Stir in smoked paprika, chipotle chili powder, salt, and black pepper, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
5
Add apple cider vinegar, BBQ sauce, ketchup, dijon mustard, and brown sugar to the skillet, stirring to combine.
6
Mix in the canned baked beans and bring the mixture to a boil, then turn off the heat. If desired, adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or chili powder.
7
Crumble the 2 cooked bacon slices and sprinkle over the beans. Lay 2 additional slices of raw bacon on top.
8
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until bubbly and syrupy.
