For a smoky flavor, use smoked bacon. Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference; start with 3/4 cup and add more to taste. If you like a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce. These beans are even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
