For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of different barbecue sauces. A smoky mesquite barbecue sauce paired with a sweet honey barbecue sauce works wonderfully. Adjust the amount of brown sugar and cider vinegar to your taste preference. For a sweeter dish, add more brown sugar; for a tangier flavor, increase the cider vinegar. Feel free to add other beans to the mix, such as great northern beans or cannellini beans. Serve hot as a main course or side dish. It pairs well with cornbread, coleslaw, or grilled meats.
