Julies Smoky Baked Beans Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 smoked ham hock
  • 2 tsp olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb pork, in chunks (I’ve used pork chops off the bone)
  • 1 cup chopped roasted red bell pepper (actually, a combo of red/yellow/orange is good and colorful, too)
  • 1 (4 oz) can chopped mild green chiles
  • 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
  • 1 (28 oz) can baked beans
  • 2 cups tomato broth with chicken or chicken broth
  • 3 cups soaked beans (I’ve used black beans, black eyed peas, and a combo – canned are also okay, but will cook faster)
  • 1 Tbsp pomegranate molasses (pomegranate syrup)
  • 1 Tbsp regular molasses
  • 3 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • --> 1 Tbsp additional maple syrup, to taste (optional, added before serving and not during cooking)
