The Best Tangy Pork and Beans
This might be the best tangy pork and beans that we have ever made. I worked in a grocery store for the first 17 years of my life, and I was always looking for different ways to dress up everything that was ordinary. Yes, I lived in the Midwest all of those years, and was raised on most anything that could fit in a 9×13 casserole dish. Trying to recreate and come up with different ways to make food that didn’t seem ordinary hasn’t been that much of a challenge if you have the right ingredients. That, and a level head for some creativity.

This is also another great option to dress up the normal pork and beans for any backyard BBQ. It has a light tangy taste, and can be served with burgers, any kind of smoked meat, or quick side for anything on the grill. It will easily help you break out of the normal pork and beans that we are all use to.
