Barbecued Beans With Smoked Sausage

A Southwestern take on one of my hubby's favorite dishes. Usually I make baked beans with miniature smoked sausages, but this time I cut up large smoked sausages and used barbecue sauce and chile peppers. I also used Queso Casero (homemade Mexican cheese), but Queso Fresco can be substituted. From my food blog at: http://www.comfortcookadventures.com/2013/05/not-your-average-franks-and-beans.html
