This recipe for Baked Beans and Wieners is perfect to for upcoming cook-outs, picnics, and summer parties.
My children always liked this dish when they were young. It seemed like someone brought a pan of Baked Beans and Wieners to any get together that we have attended.I have continued to fix this recipe even though they are all adults. The grandchildren now, always eat this first.
This past week, when we went to Easter dinner at my daughters, I made several sides and this was one of them.
I used a large can of beans, but this recipe can be altered for any size can of beans. A small can of the beans can be used if fixing this recipe for 2 people.
Pardon the disposable aluminum pan, but these are so handy if you are transporting this dish. I do use a nice baking dish if serving this as a side for a holiday meal.
HOW TO MAKE BAKED BEANS AND WIENERS:
Spray a large baking dish with no stick cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
I always use Bush beans. In a large bowl or pan, combine the beans, onions, green bell pepper, ketchup, and brown sugar.
Cut the beef franks into pieces and stir into the beans.
Bake for about 40 minutes, or until beans are hot and bubbly.
One of the great things about this recipe is that it can be prepped ahead of time and baked when you need it. It can also be served
hot or at room temperature.
I have always served Baked Beans and Wieners as a side dish, but it
could also be used as a main dish. Add a salad and some mashed potatoes for a comfort food, inexpensive meal.
If you are serving this at a cook-out, you must have my
Old Fashioned Potato Salad.

When you use the smaller can of beans to make this recipe for 2, by how much do you reduce the other ingredients, 1/2 or 1/4? I would like to make this for my husband and myself. Thank you.
Hi. When I use the 16oz size can, I would reduce the ingredients to 1/4. It really wouldn’t matter if you don’t do an exact amount in reducing ingredients. My husband loves the green peppers in them so I put in an extra amount of them, even when I use the smaller can. I really should have measured the ingredients when making a smaller can…I even did this last week. I hope you like them. Thank you
