Baked beans are the standard side for many BBQ’s, and all to often we use easy short cuts. The BBQ Five Beans recipe is a all out full flavored baked beans side dish, using no short cuts. All beans used in this recipe are started from dried beans and soaked for 12 hours and slow cooked before making them into BBQ Five Beans. Then smoked on the Green Egg for 4 hours at 300°F with apple wood chunks. The result was spicy and smokey BBQ Five Beans, two thumbs up with “Oh Ya” end! This was tested out at Wright’s famous BBQ no fire extinguisher was needed.
A five dried bean mixture that is soaked, and slow cooked then made into spicy Smoked BBQ beans. This recipe has just enough heat to say "Oh Ya!" But not so hot that a fire extinguisher is needed to put out the flames. The beans have a long cooking time but its more of a "set it and forget it" until the beans are done.

Instructions
- Sort through all the dried beans making sure no dirt, rocks or bad beans. Wash all dried beans with cold water well in colander.
- Place washed beans in slow cooker, add bay leaf, BBQ Spice Seasoning and chicken stock, cover with lid and set slow cooker on low and timer for 8 hours. Now let slow cooker do work and not worry.
- Remove bay leaf, and remove cooked beans from the slow cooker into mixing bowl. Now this could go into refrigerator overnight if you wanted to make beans a day ahead.
BBQ Five Beans
- Fry the diced bacon in skillet with olive oil and garlic. Remove bacon when crisp onto paper towel. Add the onions to bacon grease and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes until onions are translucent.
- Add to cooked onions the crisp bacon pieces, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, BBQ spice seasoning, chili powder, garlic pepper, brown sugar, molasses, maple syrup, pepper flakes and brown mustard and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on medium heat. Turn heat off and remove from burner. This is BBQ Sauce for beans
- Add the cooked BBQ Sauce to cooked beans and stirring well. Place bean mixture in a heat proof casserole dish.
- Heat up smoker, with Green Egg want the dome temperature at 300°F. I used apple wood chunks for smoke. When smoker is up to temperature place on indirect heat close lid or door and smoke for 4 hours. Note check every hour on temperature and add wood chucks as needed.
- After 4 hours remove from smoker when ready for service. Enjoy with any traditional BBQ Foods.
