Preheat oven to 350°F.

Pour into a 9x13 pan. Lay bacon strips over the top, or sprinke pulled pork evenly over the top. If using ribs, remove and shred the meat, then sprinkle over the beans. Cover with foil and bake 45 minutes.
Remove foil and bake another 15 minutes, or until bubbly. Serve hot. Keeps refrigerated up to 1 week, or frozen up to 1 month.
