Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups Smoked chicken, turkey, beef, pork
  • Or Chorizo
  • 1 can Pork and beans, 1/2 liquid reserved
  • 1 can Red kidney beans -- drained
  • 1 can Black beans -- drained
  • 1 can Tomato sauce -- optional
  • 2 medium Granny Smith apples, cored and peeled -- diced
  • 1 medium Onion -- diced
  • Jalapenos to taste
  • 1 bottle Barbecue sauce
  • 1 bottle Maple syrup
Directions
  1. 1
    Rinse the red kidney beans and black beans thoroughly in a colander under cold water, then drain well.
  2. 2
    Drain the can of pork and beans, reserving about half of the thick liquid in a small bowl, then add the beans to the colander with the others and give them a quick rinse.
  3. 3
    Place a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat and add the reserved bean liquid (or tomato sauce if substituting).
  4. 4
    Add all the rinsed beans to the pot and stir to combine with the liquid.
  5. 5
    Stir in the diced smoked chicken, chopped onions, diced apples, and sliced jalapeños.
  6. 6
    Pour in about 1/4 cup of maple syrup, adjusting to taste if you prefer a sweeter profile.
  7. 7
    Add barbecue sauce gradually, starting with half the bottle, stirring until the mixture reaches a thick, stew-like consistency that is just liquid enough to simmer without sticking.
  8. 8
    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low to maintain a slow bubble.
  9. 9
    Cover partially and let simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally from the bottom to prevent sticking, until the apples are tender and flavors have melded.
  10. 10
    Taste and adjust seasoning with more maple syrup or barbecue sauce if needed before serving.
