Bbq Baked Beans with Thick-Cut Bacon

"My grandmother made the BEST baked beans in the world, and she passed the recipe to my mom so she could make them, too. There was something about them… sweet and tangy and rich and delicious. They basically felt like the most special thing you could eat. Baked beans are like the quintessential “kid food.” They are fun, flavorsome and great as a side to any main. And while this recipe ain’t the one I grew up with, it has that more grown up flavor that is sure to please moms and kids alike!"
