We love these side dishes for our Kansas City ribs because we feel that a sweet, slightly spicy baked bean and a creamy tangy coleslaw deserve to be highlighted on your summer BBQ table. The pit beans pair great with the ribs and the cool and creamy coleslaw contrasts perfectly. While the ingredient list looks long, both of these recipes come together in a flash. You can cook the beans at the same time as the ribs and prepare the coleslaw during the cook. Whip up some lemonade and relax on your porch while Suvie cooks this delicious meal for you.
Ingredients
Pit Bean Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp packed brown sugar
- 1 tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 cups chopped brisket or other leftover bbq meat

Coleslaw Ingredients:
- 1 package (14 oz) coleslaw mix
- ⅔ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp sugar
Directions
1) Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add onion and 1 1/2 tsp salt. Saute until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, brown sugar, chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, 1 tsp ground black pepper, and continue to cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more. Remove skillet from heat and transfer contents to a Suvie pan.
2) Add brisket, navy beans, molasses, mustard, and bbq sauce, stirring to combine. Insert pan into your Suvie, input settings, and cook now or schedule.

3) During the cook, prepare the coleslaw. Add coleslaw mix to a large mixing bowl. In a small bowl whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, sugar, and 1 tsp salt. Pour dressing over coleslaw and toss until coated. Add more salt to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
4) After the cook, remove the beans from Suvie. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve beans and coleslaw together with ribs, pulled pork or any of our other bbq recipes.
