This recipe has been a long time coming! Bonfire night is coming our way next week so it felt like the perfect time to share it with you guys!

It’s such a quick and easy recipe that can be made ahead and assembled right at the last minute. It’s kinda dirty and the kinda grub you’ll wana be shovelling in your mouth.

The 15 min smoky beans are made from store cupboards ingredients and have a good dollop of Barnfathers og pineapple hot sauce, the sweet mild spicy kick goes so well with the smoky beans and how cool is the branding! Got a few other recipes to rustle up with these beans which I hope you’ll enjoy just as much as this one!
