Crack Green Beans

This side dish is guaranteed to become a sought-after addition to your culinary repertoire.

  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 (8-ounce) cans of green beans, drained
  • 12 slices of bacon, chopped and cooked until crisp
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 7 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Prepare the Beans: In a 9x13-inch baking dish, lay out the drained green beans. Evenly distribute the crispy bacon on top.
  • Create the Flavor Mix: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, melted butter, soy sauce, and garlic powder until well combined.
  • Combine and Bake: Drizzle the flavor mix over the green beans and bacon. Toss gently to ensure all the beans are coated.
  • Bake: Transfer the dish to the oven and bake for 40 minutes. Stir the beans halfway through to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Once done, the green beans should have a shiny, sticky glaze. Stir once more before serving to coat them in any remaining sauce in the dish.
