    Bourbon Baked Beans

    Memorial Day is in l week which means it is grilling season...which totally has nothing to do with this post. Well, I take that back. Baked beans are best served next to some juicy BBQ'd ribs, potato salad and an ice cold beer.

    Bourbon Baked Beans 2

    This recipe can be made with canned beans or dried beans. I usually like to make a large pot, so I go with the dried beans to reduce cost. If I am serving these beans for a party I always make them 1-2 days ahead of time. Not only do they take some time to cook, but this is one of those dishes that taste better the next day.

    Make sure to add these to your summer BBQ menu!
