Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the liquids have reduced and thickened to your desired consistency and the bacon is crispy (if using). Stir the beans gently halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking. (60-90 minutes)

Recipe View Remove from the oven and let the beans rest for 10 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even further. (10 minutes)

For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and add a teaspoon of liquid smoke for a similar smoky flavor.
Adjust the amount of jalapeños and cayenne pepper to control the spiciness of the dish.
Feel free to experiment with different types of beer. A dark beer like a stout or porter will add a deeper, more robust flavor.
These beans are even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
