This is a favorite at potlucks and barbeques! I've often wondered if I get invited for my company or my Cola Beans! I've tried several different brands of colas, but have found that Coke® works best. I like to pre-cook the bacon about half-way so it doesn't make the beans too greasy, but it's not necessary. This recipe can also be baked in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F for about 1 hour.
Ingredients
- 4 cans baked beans , 28 ounce
- 0.5 pounds bacon
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 can cola soft drink , 12 fluid ounce
Instructions
-
1
In a slow cooker, alternately layer the baked beans, bacon, and brown sugar. Pour in some of the cola with each layer, until all has been used.

2
Cover, and cook 8 to 10 hours on Low or 4 to 6 hours on High. (See Cook's Note for oven directions.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bourbon Pepper Pan Sauce
Mastering pan sauces is one of the most important but easiest steps towards producing legit restaurant-quality dishes at home. Assemble all the sauce ingredients before cooking the steak so you can make the sauce during the 5-minute resting time for steak. The rich, sweet, peppery flavor profile also works wonderfully with pork chops and grilled chicken. You can also switch up the bourbon for another liquor, since this really is just a technique recipe.
Pistachio Butter
Pistachio butter is less well-known than other nut butters, but if your favorite nut is a pistachio, it only makes sense to turn it into nut butter. Pistachio butter has a mild taste and a surprising green hue, so you might want to make it for the intriguing color alone.
English Muffins
This English muffin recipe has been made in my family for decades. They are very good and taste much better than store-bought English muffins. They're great with orange butter or cream cheese and jam.
