Categories     Weeknight

Time 1h45m

Yield 30-40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cans red kidney beans, drained
2 cans butter beans, drained
2 cans lima beans, drained
4 jars b&m brand baked beans
1 lb bacon, diced (not too lean you need the fat)
3 -4 onions
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons garlic powder

Steps:

  • In large, deep skillet, fry bacon until crisp.
  • DO NOT DRAIN.
  • Add onions, vinegar, sugar and seasonings, stir.
  • Simmer 20-25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile mix all the beans together.
  • (I usually use a large throwaway aluminum roaster pan like the turkey size either oval or rectangle that you can also bake in and then throw away).
  • Pour hot bacon mixture over beans in pan and mix well.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 70-80 minutes.
  • This freezes well.

Tips:

  • Soak your beans overnight: Soaking beans helps to soften them and reduce their cooking time. It also helps to remove some of the indigestible sugars that can cause gas.
  • Use a slow cooker: Slow cookers are a great way to cook beans because they allow them to cook slowly and evenly. This results in tender, flavorful beans.
  • Season your beans well: Beans are a blank canvas when it comes to flavor, so don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings. Some popular options include garlic, onion, cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika.
  • Add beans to salads, soups, and stews: Beans are a great way to add protein, fiber, and flavor to salads, soups, and stews. They can also be used as a meat substitute in many dishes.

Conclusion:

Beans are a healthy, versatile, and affordable ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are a great source of protein, fiber, and vitamins and minerals. With a little planning and effort, you can easily incorporate more beans into your diet and enjoy all the benefits they have to offer.
