Ingredient Substitution
Use chopped frozen onion, measured directly from the package, in place of freshly chopped onion. Or, try instant dried or powdered onion; 2 tablespoons of dried minced onion or 1 tablespoon onion powder equals ½ cup of chopped onion.
Kitchen Tip
Rinse canned beans well to remove any starchy liquid and excess salt. Drain the rinsed beans thoroughly.
Make It Special
For more summer barbecue spirit, add 1/2 cup of dark beer to the beans before cooking.
