Don't tell Duke I gave out the secret

I also find that Bushs' Country Style is already doctored up (sweetened).

I sometimes squirt a little BBQ sauce in there, but for the most part I keep it simple.

My preferred cooking method is to "bake" em on my BBQ smoker.

8 slices bacon, halved
1 medium onion small dice
1/2 medium green pepper small dice

3 large cans (28 ounces each) pork and beans

3/4 cup barbecue sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray's)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup distilled or cider vinegar (prefer the cider)
2 teaspoons dry mustard or 2 tablespoons Dijon (Dijon)

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees.
Fry bacon in LARGE?DEEP sauté pan skillet until bacon is just curling (fat still white) and released about 1/4 cup drippings.
Remove bacon drain on paper towels.
Add onions and peppers to drippings in pan and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add beans and remaining ingredients bring to a simmer. (If skillet is not large enough, add beans and heat to a simmer then transfer to a large bowl and stir in remaining ingredients).
Pour everything into a greased 13-by 9-inch ovenproof pan.
Top with bacon, then bake until beans are bubbly and sauce is like syrup about 2 hours.
Remove, let it sit for 2-3 minutes then serve.

FYI - this is from Pioneer Woman's website: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2009/08/the-best-baked-beans-ever/

I was looking for a main dish with baked beans that was easy to make, simple ingredients, and cooktop only. Found this one and will be trying it out this weekend:

1 lb ground beef
1 28-oz can baked beans
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup chunky salsa

brown the beef and onions in a skillet. Drain. Add the rest of the ingredients, still and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat, simmer for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

If it works well, I'll experiment with different salsas.

Try this Sometime

2 large Cans Pork and Beans (Drained)
1 granny smith apple
one Med onion
1 Cup of raisins
1/2 a bottle or so of Stub's Original BBQ Sauce (To much and it will be watery)
4 to 5 Strips of bacon
1/4 cup brown sugar

Mix everything together and put the bacon on top and bake for 1 to 2 hours at 350 degrees or until bacon is done and enjoy. They are very good this way and usually never eat beans....

We always knew the addition of ground beef and BBQ sauce as Cowboy Beans.

We have used this one for a long time. Never seem to have any left overs.
1 lb. ground beef (browned and drained)
1/2 to 1 sweet bell pepper chopped
1/2 an onion (+ or -) chopped
2 cans pork and beans drained and rinsed
1/4 cup your favorite BBQ sauce
3/4 cup catchup
1/4 cup brown sugar ( + or - )
1/4 cup white sugar ( + or - )
We tend to cut back on the sugar just a little bit.
After browning the ground beef and draining add the chopped onion and green pepper. Cook for a short amount of time to get them to start softening. Add in the sugar, bbq sauce, catchup and beans.
Bake @ 350 for 30-45 minutes uncovered.

We do the browning and start the cooking of the onions and green pepper in the micro wave to speed things up.

I turn mine into baked beans that taste like they've baked all day in a crock.

I add a bit of diced (uncooked) bacon, 1/2 tsp dry mustard, 1/4 c each of molasses and brown sugar, and a bit of onion. Cook for about 30-40 minutes.

It's yummy and cheap.
