My husband is a baked beans connoisseur, and these are his favorites. I never use the chorizo. Sometimes I add bacon, but usually just make them with no meat. Sometimes they turn out a touch dry, so keep an eye on the liquid level.
Fiery Chipotle Baked Beans
Molasses sweetens the beans, vinegar adds tang, and the chipotle chile powder makes them spicy.
