First of all, you'll need about four cups of cooked medium size white
beans, with their liquid. If you don't know how to cook beans, click

This is a recipe for barbecue beans made on the stove top. They
can also be made in a pot or pan covered in aluminum foil on the grill
while you're cooking other things. |
This, by the way, is the simple, end-of-the-month version. You can
make it fancier and use fresh onions and garlic if you like.
You will need:
4 cups cooked beans with their liquid
1 tablespoon black strap molasses
1 teaspoon prepared mustard or 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder or grains,
depending on your tastes
1 tablespoon tomato paste, or ketchup if you're out
1 cube or 1 teaspoon chicken boullion
1 good dash of black pepper.
1 tablespoon dry fried onions
1 teaspoon garlic crystals or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (less if you
don't like it so garlicky)
(optional) 1 tablespoon white wine
(optional) 1/2 cup grated hard salami
Salt or Vegeta, or like product, to taste
Place everything except the beans in the bottom of the pan, and stir
until it is dissolved, or as close as you can get.
Stir in the beans with their liquid.
Cover and bring to a boil.
Once they're boiled, stir them a little more, and then turn the heat
down to low.
When they're as soft as you like, just remove them from the heat, and
serve.
This is a good dish to have with rice, potato salad, grilled meats,
or other general barbecue fare. It's also nice with chopped up hot-dogs
to make it "beans and wieners".
