Smoked some beans today to go with PP.      They came out very well so I thought I'd share the recipe. 

6 strips of thick cut hickory smoked bacon cubed or chunked
2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
1 green bell pepper, coarsley chopped
1 jalapeño, or more or less to your taste, coarsley chopped   Seeding is optional

1 can (53 ounces) plain pork and beans
1 can (15 ounces) red kidney beans

1 can great northern beans
1/2 cup ketchup

1/4 cup Kentucky Bourbon or Tennessee whiskey  

4 tablespoons molasses

2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Let them smoke uncovered for over 3hrs at 230 (I took them to 175 to get the thickness I like) using a blend of cherry and oak pellets.

Enjoy
 
Hi FishinChik,

I see that you joined yesterday, so welcome to the forum! 

Your baked bean recipe looks delicious. Making smoked baked beans is something that I haven't tried yet, so your recipe looks like an awesome way to give it a shot.

Thanks for posting it!

 Thanks for the recipe I will give it a try - looks yummy
 
Lesson learned.. next time.. take pics.  lol    Sorry, didn't think they were Qview worthy but I will next time.   I'm going to try my first brisket next weekend and will make another batch of beans then.
 
Do you stir them at all?  I would think that giving them a stir maybe every 45 minutes would better distribute the smoke taste through the beans.
