Ingredients:

½ lb giant beans soaked overnight
6 slices bacon
2 red onions diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 ½ cups spicy barbecue sauce
1 cup Fischer beer
4 tbsp Greek honey
3 tbsp Dijon mustard
3 tbsp dark sugar
2 tbsp Worcesteshire sauce
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
hot sauce as desired or chopped fresh chili peppers
1 small bunch fresh, flat-leaf parsley finely chopped

Procedure:

 

Preheat oven to 180°C

1. Drain beans and refill a large pot with fresh water. Add the beans and bring to a boil over a high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes, until the beans are tender but al dente.

2. Remove and drain, saving about 2 cups of their boiling liquid.

3. Sauté the onions until transparent and then add the bacon over a medium heat until crisp. Remove from the skillet and chop.

4. Combine the beans, bacon, onions and remaining ingredients in a large bowl and toss. Pour the mixture into a large baking pan and bake covered until the beans are very tender but not so soft that they disintegrate.

5. Remove, cool slightly and serve, either warm or at room temperature.

Tips

If you don't have time to let the beans soak overnight, put themin a large pot and add enough cold water to cover by three inches. Do not cove and simmer over medium-high heat. Continue simmering for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 1 hour. Drain and start the recipe.
