homemade beanie wienie type recipe?
 

Since we thought we were moving this week :sigh we have been trying to eat up as much as possible so we don't have to move as much food. Now we are not sure when we will be moving, but are still trying to eat what we have. So, I have pinto beans soaking and a pot of rice soaking for tomorrow. I have some roasted garlic smoked sausage (fully cooked).
I want to make something like beanie wienies using the beans and sausage tomorrow. Should I just add the sausage into the beans near the end of the cooking time? What seasoning should I add to the beans?
My kids are not big bean eaters, but dd will eat beanie wienies - the canned kind - and I was hoping to make something a bit similar. Suggestions?
thx

I used to make a kind of BBQ beans using sauteed onions and garlic, either diced/crushed tomatoes or tomato sauce, cumin, oregano, ketchup or bottled bbq sauce, mustard, brown sugar/molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce... varying amounts and combinations, depending on what I had and how it tasted. I might saute the onions, garlic and sausage at the beginning and then add the rest.
