Jiddi's Baked Beans

Hi everyone! The final video of our July 4th is a Midamar family favorite. I still remember the first time Jiddi made these baked beans, it must’ve been around 2005 that he brought these out to the park where the whole family was having our annual grill out/get together. It was nice and sweet but with a little bit of that barbeque taste, not to mention that great smokey flavor that our Breakfast Beef brings to these kinds of dishes! It’s been 15 years since then and I am only just now learning how to make this, thus continuing the recipe and starting a new family tradition! Also, little side note here, Jiddi rarely makes this in small batches, but after watching and his technique I’ve found an approximation of his recipe that will taste exactly as he makes it. He usually makes about 4 times this amount for the get togethers, so… if you have a large family gathering once the quarantine is lifted be sure to multiply this recipe accordingly!

Ingredients:

½ of an onion, diced

1 package of Midamar Breakfast Beef

1 cuo of Brown Sugar

½ cup of your favorite BBQ sauce

½ cup of Ketchup

5) Cook until thickened slightly, add Breakfast Beef and cook for 3-5 minutes more (depends on desired thickness)

6) Pour beans into an oven safe dish and bake for 1 hour at 250° degrees
