Root Beer Baked Beans

I found this recipe in a magazine and tried them at Easter when my family came over for lunch.  Everyone really liked them, especially my brother Donnie.

Root Beer Baked Beans
6 slices bacon
1 onion, diced
4 cans pork & beans
1 cup root beer (not diet)
1/2 cup Sweet Baby Ray's Original BBQ sauce
1/4 cup molasses
1 tsp. dry mustard
3-4 dashes hot sauce

Cook bacon in skillet over medium heat until crisp.  Remove and drain on paper towers.  Reserve 4 tbsp. drippings in the skillet.  Crumble bacon.

Sauté diced onion in the hot bacon drippings over high heat 5 minutes or until tender. 

Mix all ingredients then place in a large baking dish and cook uncovered at 400* for 55 minutes or until sauce is thickened.
