1
Prepare the Beans
Soak the northern, pinto, and small red beans overnight in water. Drain and rinse before cooking.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a large pot over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove bacon, crumble, and set aside. Leave the bacon fat in the pot.
3
Sauté Vegetables
In the same pot with the bacon fat, add the chopped onion and mixed bell peppers. Sauté until they are soft and translucent.
4
Combine Ingredients
Add the soaked beans, crumbled bacon, and pulled pork to the pot with the sautéed vegetables. Stir to combine.
5
Simmer
Add enough water to cover the beans and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 1 hour, or until beans are tender.
6
Bake
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the bean mixture to a baking dish and bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
7
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your baked beans!
