Poblana Bake Beans

My friend, Loraine, in Texas sent me this. This is the Ruby Tuesdays Baked Beans. Ruby Tuesdays is a restaurant chain, for those who don't know. This is great for a large family reunion or graduation party. Of course, you can do the math and reduce the amount.
YIELDS 2 full hotel pans or enough for 50+

2 cans BAKED BEANS, #10 can
1 can BLACK BEANS, #10 can, rinsed
1 can BUTTER BEANS, #10 can, rinsed
2 pounds YELLOW ONION, diced, raw weight
3/4 pound POBLANO PEPPER, diced ** this is a mild chile pepper

1 cup TOMATO PASTE
1 cup WATER

Seasoning for each pan
2 Tablespoons Dry Mustard
1 cup BROWN SUGAR
1 cup MOLASSES
1 Tablespoon TABASCO

6 PEPPER BACON STRIPS, cut into ½ “pieces
6 PLAIN BACON STRIPS, cut into ½ “pieces

Split the beans, veggies between two full hotel pans.

Whisk the water into the tomato paste and divide between the 2 pans.

Season each pan and mix.

Space the bacon pieces evenly on the top of the beans in each pan
Oven at 350 degrees. Bake until bubbling in the center and bacon is cooked.

ENJOY!
