And here's my baked bean recipe:
[FONT="]KILLER BAKED BEANS [/FONT]
[FONT="]1 lb ground beef or sausage, cooked & crumbled, AND/OR[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 lb diagonally sliced smoked sausage[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled[/FONT]
[FONT="]2 tbl bacon grease[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 medium onion, chopped[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 large can pork & beans with juice[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 can chili beans, drained, juice reserved[/FONT]
1 can great northern beans, drained
[FONT="]1 can baby limas, drained[/FONT]
[FONT="]1 can butter beans, drained[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/2 cup brown sugar, packed[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/2 cup catsup[/FONT]
[FONT="]1/4 cup mustard[/FONT]
[FONT="]In small bowl, microwave onions in bacon grease till soft. Mix all ingredients together except bacon bits. Adjust seasoning Add more juice from beans if needed. The mixture should be juicy. Add a little Tobasco if you wish. Put in sprayed baking dish and sprinkle bacon over top. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 1 hour, or until hot and bubbly.[/FONT]
[FONT="]*Note: Except for the large can (28 oz?) of pork and beans, you can vary the types of beans if you wish. Canneloni, kidney, pinto or navy beans can be used, as well as crowder or black eye peas.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I have also added a can of Rotel tomatoes...you can skip the Tobasco sauce if you do that. [/FONT]
