1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté onion and garlic until onion begins to soften, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add diced bacon, red bell pepper, and jalapeños, cooking until bacon is browned, about 7 to 10 minutes.

3

In a large bowl, mix beer, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, and molasses. Stir in pinto beans, bacon-onion mixture, garlic salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
