Cowboy Beans

These baked beans are THE SHIT. Literally…they will give you gas. But they are the bomb diggity. I make a pot of these every time we’re invited to a cookout. And the pot is always empty when we leave. Hell, they could almost be a main dish with all the meat and protein it has packed into it. The bacon drippings and molasses really set this dish up right. Trust me, you will LOVE this.
