These Smoked Loaded Baked Beans that I made in a Cast Iron Dutch Oven on my Pitboss smoker turned out AMAZING!! Now a friend had given me most of the recipes a couple of years ago and normally I would whip them up in a crockpot.  But come one cast iron and a smoker it had to be done.  (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

Now I grew up with everything being cooked in Cast Iron by family.  As I have gotten older I find myself gravitating toward the cast iron more often.   In addition o loving cast iron I use my  Pit Boss Pro 1100 as more of a convection oven. Soups, beans, and stews are always my favorite dinner in the fall and winter months but the smoker gives the bonus of smoke flavor, as well as slow-cooked tenderness.  I picked up my Pitboss at Lowes, but Walmart and Amazon carry other Pit Boss options or Pit Boss website themselves.

How To Make Smoked Loaded Baked Beans: 

 

Start out by browning your hamburger and partially cooking your bacon.  (Thankfully I freeze cooked ground beef so I just defrost it.  Check this out to learn how to -> here huge time saver.)

 

*I don’t fully cook my bacon because I know it will cook some in the dutch oven so know how you like your bacon and prep it accordingly* 

 

If you are using a cast iron dutch oven wipe it down with oil to help make sure that it is ready to cook without having stuff stick.  I use an old cast iron dutch oven the old lady picked up for $5 and it has worked amazing! An Enameled Cast Iron would work as well just know that the smoke may stain the dutch oven.

Open up your cans of beans and dump them into your dutch oven.  I did strain my butter beans but the other beans I kept all the sauce.

Add in your meat next you can drop in more bacon grease if you want to for extra flavoring.

 

Next, add in the rest of your ingredients and stir everything together. 

 

Now I was already smoking a Brisket already that day I knew the side I would have the dutch oven would be on the hotter side of my smoker so I shortened my cook time for them. 

 

Fire up your smoker. I set my Pit Boss Pro 1100 to a P setting of 7 at 200 with my brisket and use Mesquite pellets when I smoked these baked beans. Yes, I order my pellets from Walmart they have the best prices, and with orders over $35, they deliver for free.

 

Smoked Baked Beans On Smoker

 

Set the full dutch oven on your smoke once you smoke rolling, without a lid so the smoke can saturate the beans.

 

Stir the beans every 30 minutes. 

 

Allow to slow cook for 3 hours at least, longer if you are on the “not as hot” part of your smoker.

 

*if cooking at a low temp on the cooler side of the smoker be sure to allow the beans to smoke for about 4 to 6 hours with the stirring.
