BBQ Bean and Sausage Skillet: A Recipe

Hello!

 

With all the holiday cooking coming up, I wanted to share a quick and easy recipe with you.

Just in case you get tired of turkey and mashed potatoes with stuffing.

{grin!}

 

This recipe has been a favorite of ours since we lived in Arkansas, over three years ago.

 

It is really robust and full of flavor.

It is saucy and filling. And I make it quite often.

 

Behold: the BBQ bean and sausage skillet.

: )

 

You will need:

 

brown sugar

an onion

ketchup

Worcestershire sauce

butter

2 cans of pinto beans

and a kielbasa sausage

{we prefer the skinless type for this recipe}

 

 

Start by giving your onion a rough chop.

 

Toss it in a skillet.

 

And make sure to add a heaping of butter.

I used our homemade unsalted butter, but any will do.

: )

 

Saute until the onion is clear and soft.

 

Chop your sausage thinly.

 

And drain your beans well.

 

Add to your skillet.

 

Make your sauce.

 

One cup of ketchup

 

1/2 cup brown sugar

 

and a tsp. of your Worcestershire sauce

- add to your skillet.

 

Heat until bubbling.

We like ours with brown rice.

 

It is like a twist on red beans and rice.

But completely different in flavor.

 

Thick, saucy, and tangy.

 We love it!

 

It is perfect for those nights when you need something really fast.

{and when you're tired of holiday turkey!}

  Enjoy!
