 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    5       lb           Pork and beans - canned
                         -(actually 4 to 5 lbs.)
      1/2   c            Onion - chopped
      1/2   c            Celery - chopped
      1/3   c            Bell pepper - chopped
    2       tb           Mustard - prepared
      1/2   c            Molasses
    1       t            Worcestershire sauce
    3                    Drops Tabasco - actually 3
                         -to 4 drops
      1/2   c            Barbecue sauce - bottled or
                         -homemade (see recipe)
      1/2   c            Catsup
    2                    Strip bacon - uncooked and
                         -cut in half
 
   Combine all ingredients, except in bacon, in large
   ovenproof container. Lay bacon strips on top.  Place
   on smoker grid and smoke for 2 to 2-1/2 hours.
   
   Note from me:  If you don't have a smoker, you can
   cook at about 350F for about 45 minutes to 1 hour,
   until the bacon is curling.  Better flavor in a
   smoker, but divine beans without!
   
   Makes 8 to 10 servings.

   This is undoubtedly one of the best baked bean dishes
   we've ever tasted. Easy to make and no tending
   necessary.  You can have ribs smoking on the bottom
   rack and beans on the top rack.  Add garlic bread and
   coleslaw, potato salad or macaroni salad and you've
   got a Super Bowl party, bowl game or Monday Night
   Football dinner! Source: Cook'n Cajun Water Smoker Ckbk
