These BBQ baked beans are so easy to make and are perfect for summer barbecues
My inspiration to make BBQ baked beans came from a box of sauces that I was sent. I was sent these wonderful cocoa-based sauces from The Cocoa Exchange and I just knew that some of them would be perfect in my homemade BBQ baked beans. I also need a side dish for our 4th of July BBQ. The Pod & Bean portfolio of sauces from The Cocoa Exchange has these amazing seasonings that give your food a unique depth of flavor. I just knew that the Kansas City BBQ Sauce and the Stone Ground Mustard from The Cocoa Exchange would give my BBQ beans a unique taste. My BBQ Baked Beans tasted so good. The thick, sweet-spicy Kansas City BBQ sauce gave my beans a nice mild kick of heat. I licked the spoon after I added the Stone Ground Mustard and knew that this mustard would be great with a slice of my soft pretzel bread. Whoever thought of adding rich cocoa to sauces was one smart person. The cocoa just gives these sauces a wonderful taste.
This delicious bean recipe uses dried beans and is a meatless recipe. It is a great way to make a meal from uncooked beans. It is the perfect potluck recipe and is a vegan recipe. Beans are an excellent source of plant-based protein so this bean recipe could be the main dish of a vegetarian meal or a delicious side dish for your favorite hunk of meat that you cooked on the grill. I don't know about you but BBQ baked beans is a favorite summer recipe but this meatless recipe can be enjoyed year-round.
I also received a bottle of Blackberry Chipotle Sauce and a bottle of Green Chile Hot Sauce. Now to think of what to make with these sauces. I think I need to visit the Cocoa Exchange website for some inspiration as they have some amazing recipes.

Don't worry if you don't have these amazing sauces as you can use your favorite barbecue sauce in this easy recipe. Any flavor of BBQ sauce will work. I like using honey BBQ sauce in my baked beans when I want a sweeter version of barbecue baked beans.
No pressure cooker?
If you do not have a pressure cooker, then you can use a slow cooker to make this amazing plant-based recipe. Just place the beans in the slow cooker and cover them with plenty of water so the water is a couple inches higher than the beans. Cook the dried beans on high for 6 hours. Then drain the water and add the rest of the ingredients and cook on high for 3-4 hours so the beans can soak up all the flavors of the sauce.
Pressure Cooker BBQ Baked Beans
Ingredients
2 cups dried beans
1 large onion, chopped
½ cup cider vinegar
1 bottle BBQ sauce or two cups
2 tablespoons Stone Ground Mustard
½ cup of water
Directions
1. Rinse and drain navy beans. Cover the beans with water in the pressure cooker pot. Cook the beans for 40 minutes on the bean setting and use natural release.
2. When the beans are done cooking, drain them and set aside.
3. Saute the onion in the pressure cooker on the brown setting for 6 minutes or on the stove if your pressure cooker does not have this setting.
4. Add the remaining ingredients, along with the onion, to the pressure cooker pot. Cook for 15 minutes on bean setting and use natural release.
5. The liquid will thicken up as the beans cool.
I've never used a pressure cooker before but this seems like a good recipe to start with. I think im going to try these for my fourth of July picnic.
