Preparation of the Beef:
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.
Adding Flavor:
Once the beef is nicely browned, stir in the Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, onion & herb seasoning, and minced onions. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes until everything is well combined and the onions become translucent. This step helps build a savory base for your baked beans.
Combine the Ingredients:

. Mix in the chopped onions and chopped green bell peppers, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dish.
Bake to Perfection:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).After covering the baking dish, put it inside the oven.
. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the beans are bubbly and the bell peppers have softened. This baking process allows the flavors to meld together, creating a deep and rich taste profile.
Serving:
When finished, take the dish out of the oven and give it a few minutes to rest. Serve the cowboy baked beans warm, and if desired, garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of shredded cheese. This dish pairs well with crusty bread or a simple green salad.
