Best Ever Baked Beans

5 lb Pork and beans - canned (actually 4 to 5 lbs.)
1/2 c Onion - chopped
1/2 c Celery - chopped
1/3 c Bell pepper - chopped
2 T Mustard - prepared
1/2 c Molasses
1 t Worcestershire sauce
3 dr Tabasco - actually 3 to 4 drops
1/2 c Barbecue sauce - bottled or homemade (see recipe)
1/2 c Catsup
2 ea Strip bacon - uncooked and cut in half

Combine all ingredients, except in bacon, in large ovenproof container. Lay bacon strips on top. Place on smoker grid and smoke for 2 to 2-1/2 hours. Note from me: If you don't have a smoker, you can cook at about 350F for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the bacon is curling. Better flavor in a smoker, but divine beans without! Makes 8 to 10 servings.
