Franks and Beans Recipe- Sweet and savory homemade franks and beans are a fun dinner the whole family will love. I dare you to resist seconds!

Franks and beans, sometimes called beanie weenies, is an irresistible dish. Is it the height of culinary elegance? Maybe not, but when kids and adults alike clean their plates, I call that a home cook win. 👍

Plus, its pretty darn simple. Precooked or canned beans speed up the cooking process. So its a matter of sauteing a few ingredients, stirring everything, and then letting it simmer in a Dutch oven.

Why Homemade Franks and Beans Are the Bomb

Were not talking about canned franks and beans here. Whether you use canned or dry beans, this homemade version enjoys a whole host of sauces and spices that create a complex flavor profile. Rich, savory, and just the right amount of sweetness.

What You Need

Baconadds depth of flavor, saltiness, and some delicious grease to saute the aromatics. A bit of butter doesnt hurt either.

Beans- Cooked navy beans work for this recipe, but so do great northern beans, cannellini beans, or a similar white bean.

Sauce- Bell pepper, garlic, onion, thyme, and S P add texture and flavor to this dish. Thyme, chili powder, and smoked paprika spice it up. Then ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, molasses, and chicken broth deliver an exceptional balance of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors.

Franks- Slice up about six beef hot dogs for this recipe. But any variety will do: pork, chicken, turkey, its all good.
