Dr Pepper Baked Beans

Ingredients

• 1 (28 ounce) can pork and beans
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
• 1 tomato, finely chopped
• 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/3 cup Dr Pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Drain liquid from the pork and beans. Pour beans into a bean pot or a baking dish. Gently mix in onion, green bell pepper and tomato into the beans.
3. Combine sugar, Dr Pepper, and cloves until sugar is dissolved. Pour evenly over the bean mixture.
4. Bake, covered, for one hour. Check the beans; they might need a little more time than that, but don't overcook them.
