In my opinion, hot dogs shouldn't be eaten. I don't care what the holiday is. However, about once a year, I crave baked beans and hot dogs. So, it seemed only natural that we have a great baked bean recipe. Full of bacon, beans, and the sweet flavors of Calicutts Sweet and Smoky BBQ, I may have to change my stance on the hot dogs, for the kids sake. (Wink, wink)
Combine ketchup, BBQ sauce, brown sugar, Sweet & Smoky BBQ Spice Blend, and mustard in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Open the cans of beans, draining any standing liquid on top, and add beans to the mixing bowl. Mix throughly with sauce and pour into cast iron skillet.
Cut bacon into 1/2 inch pieces and place on top of the beans.
Bake beans, uncovered for 1-1.5 hours or until bacon is cooked and starting to crisp. Serve hot.
