Preheat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Cut the beef franks into 1-inch pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are slightly browned.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the baked beans. Stir gently to combine with the franks.
Add the brown sugar, yellow mustard, ketchup, molasses, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together until well-blended.
Cover the skillet and let the mixture simmer on low heat for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Serve hot directly from the skillet, or transfer to a slow cooker set to 'warm' to keep it hot while tailgating. Enjoy with crusty bread or an optional side of coleslaw.
