Ingredients

  • 2 22 oz cans baked beans
  • 1/2 cup white onion diced
  • 1 jalapeño diced
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 ½ tbsp grape jelly
  • 2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp BBQ Rub You can use our BBQ rub recipe or your favorite store bought rub.

Instructions

  • Preheat your smoker or pellet grill to 250°F.
  • In a disposable aluminum pan, add the baked beans. Layer the diced onion, jalapeño, mustard, grape jelly, Worcestershire sauce, and BBQ rub on top. There's no need to stir yet.
  • Place the pan on the smoker grates and cook uncovered for 1 hour to allow the beans to absorb smoke.
  • After 1 hour, stir the beans well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
  • Continue smoking for another 30 minutes, or until the beans are hot, bubbling, and the sauce has slightly thickened.
  • Remove from the smoker and serve immediately, or let them rest for 5–10 minutes to cool slightly before serving.
