We have been making this recipe since 2006. The creator is Dutch from smokingmeatforums,com . There is a notation to the original recipe. In the last few years bush's beans have started adding more liquid to the cans of beans. It helps to drain some of this liquid off. We make a double batch each time and drain 1 55 oz can compleatly

This is very different than our usual baked beans and yet it was very good. The pineapple is a nice addition but does make the sauce very, very sweet and is offset by the heat of the ground mustard, green pepper and jalapeno. Very nice recipe that I look forward to making again. Thanks for posting a really nice, unusual recipe!
