I know barbecue baked beans are something people usually eat in the summer, yet I can't help but feel like they make the perfect winter dish. They're warm, hearty and spicy...what else can you ask for on a cold day?

This is an easy one-pot recipe you can enjoy during both times of the year, either huddled inside as the snow piles up around your house or out on your sunny patio while sipping cocktails and flipping veggie burgers on the grill.

Ok, maybe I'm just making this recipe because I'm ready for the summer. And it's only December!

Get out your Dutch oven and fry up some tempeh with onion, bell pepper and garlic.

Pour in the beans and chipotle peppers along with a whole bunch of other yummy barbecue ingredients like tomato sauce, molasses, Dijon mustard and even beer! Now stick it in the oven and bake it for a good, long time until the soupiness is gone and the beans are thick, hearty and delicious. That's it!
