Katie Lee's baked beans | Recipe Binder

Ingredients

• 3 slices bacon diced (I will use precooked bacon and just put a couple of tsp of vegetable oil cook till foams a little and go from there in recipe)
• 1 medium onion chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 3 15-ounce cans of pork and beans (recipe called for great northern beans but I was raised on Showtime pork and beans and I like the way they are soft and not chewy/crunchy)
• 1-1/2 cups of ketchup
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 3/4 cup chicken broth
• 2 Tbsp molasses
• 2 tsp dry mustard
• 1-1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
