“BBQ comfort food. The chili powder gives the beans a nice zing, but the maple syrup smoothes out the flavors.”

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

* 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
* 1 medium onion, chopped
* 12 ounces ham steak, trimmed and diced
* 1 tablespoon minced garlic
* 3/4 cup maple syrup
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1 tablespoon chili powder
* 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 3 (15 ounce) cans baked beans with pork
* 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
* kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the onion, and cook until soft. Mix in the ham and garlic; cook and stir for 2 more minutes. Mix in the maple syrup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and baked beans. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 45 minutes.
2. Just before serving, stir in the mustard, and season with salt and pepper.
