- Cook onion and jalapeno in a skillet for 5 minutes until softened.
- Stir in barbecue sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, mustard, chili powder, and pepper until smooth.
- Add drained beans and fold gently so beans remain whole.
- Transfer mixture to baking dish and spread evenly.
- Cover and bake 45 minutes until bubbling and fragrant.
- Uncover and bake 30 to 35 minutes until sauce thickens and edges caramelize.
- Rest 10 minutes, then serve warm.
Notes
For softer beans, keep covered longer. For crispier sticky edges, uncover earlier and bake longer. Freeze cooled portions up to 2 months. Stir gently during assembly to prevent broken beans. Add bacon, brisket bits, or extra chile for flavor changes. Refrigerate leftovers up to 5 days.
