Ingredients
- 1. Ground beef weighing a pound
- 2. A finely chopped sweet onion
- 3. Minced garlic cloves
- 4. Salt and freshly ground black pepper, as per preference
- 5. Half a teaspoon of garlic powder
- 6. Equivalent amount of onion powder
- 7. Two tablespoons of dried parsley
- 8. A can of baked beans with pork, 28 ounces
- 9. A tablespoon and a half of prepared yellow mustard
- 10. Two tablespoons of brown sugar
- 11. Two tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
- 12. One and a half cups of honey garlic barbecue sauce
Step 1
To start off, brown the ground beef in a generously-sized skillet over medium-high heat, ensuring an even cook; don't forget to drain any excess fat. Next, introduce the onion and garlic to the sizzling beef, sautéing until the onion turns beautifully transparent, usually taking around 3 to 4 minutes. Then, incorporate a mix of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh parsley to the beef blend, allowing the flavors to meld for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 2
Once the savory base is set, gently fold in the canned beans, followed by a medley of mustard, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and tangy barbecue sauce, stirring until everything harmonizes into a luscious concoction. Taste-test and season further with salt and pepper to your liking. Lower the heat to a gentle medium-low setting and let the medley simmer for about 30 minutes, letting all the ingredients meld together into a symphony of flavors.
