• 1/2 pound ground beef

How To Make Cowboy Baked Beans Recipe

1. Preparation of the beef: Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it into tiny pieces as it cooks. This ensures that each bite is infused with the flavors of the seasoning.
2. Adding Flavor: Once the beef is nicely browned, stir in the Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, onion & herb seasoning, and minced onions. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes until everything is well combined and the onions are translucent. This step is crucial for building the savory base of your baked beans.
3. Combine the Ingredients: In a large baking dish, combine the cooked beef mixture with the canned baked beans. Mix in the chopped onions and green bell peppers, ensuring that the vegetables are distributed evenly throughout the dish.
4. Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover the baking dish and place it in the oven. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the beans are bubbly and the bell peppers have softened. This baking process melds the flavors together beautifully, creating a deep, rich taste profile.
5. Serving: Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes. Serve warm, garnishing with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of shredded cheese if desired. This dish pairs wonderfully with crusty bread or a simple green salad.
