Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 (28-ounce) cans baked beans

Sauce and Seasonings

  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the beans and hamburger mixture evenly.
  2. Cook Beef and Onion: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is fully browned and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat to avoid greasiness.
  3. Add Sauce and Seasonings: Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika into the browned beef and onion mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, mixing thoroughly to combine all flavors.
  4. Combine with Baked Beans: Add the canned baked beans to the skillet and stir well to evenly coat all the beans in the seasoned meat mixture.
  5. Transfer and Bake: Transfer the entire mixture into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until the mixture is hot and bubbling throughout.
  6. Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and serve warm as a satisfying main dish perfect for a family meal or gathering.
