Dinosaur Bbq Style Baked Beans - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (28 ounce) cans baked beans (I used Bush's Homestyle. Choose a less-sweet variety.)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced (or more, if you love garlic)
1 lb hot Italian sausage, casings removed
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (I accidentally only put 1 in when I made this, still loved it)
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon molasses
1 teaspoon chili powder
salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

Heat olive oil to medium-high in a large saucepan, and cook onion and pepper until soft, adding salt and pepper.
When softened, add garlic and cook another minute.
Add sausage, crumbling it into small pieces while it cooks.
Drain some of the liquid from the beans- make it about the same level in the can as the beans themselves. Mix into the sausage/veggies.
Turn the heat down to medium-low and add remaining ingredients. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
Serve immediately, or let cool and reheat. We loved this the next day, as the flavors had a chance to really mix.
