Papa Joe's Baked Beans

1 Ring Smoked Sausage
2 cans Beans (28 oz. Bush or B&M Oven Baked w/brown sugar)
4 Tbs Molasses (dark)
8 Tbs Brown sugar
4 Tbs Mustard
4 Tbs Maple Syrup
1 ½ lbs Bacon
2 medium onions
4 Tbs BBQ sauce, not hot

Cut bacon in one half inch pieces (save enough pieces to cover top of pan) and fry. Save grease to fry sausage. 

Cute sausage into little pieces, brown and drain, add to bacon pieces. 

Put beans into 9x12 casserole, add bacon and sausage; cut onions in half and slice- add to bean mixture; combine ½ of brown sugar, mustard, and maple syrup and mix thoroughly, top with uncooked bacon pieces, sprinkle remaining brown sugar over beans, drizzle BBQ sauce over bacon and cook without a cover 40-50 minutes or until bacon is browned.
