I cut this down substantially to serve 4, but it still turned out wonderfully. Of course, now I have to find a use for all those leftover canned beans! Probably another repeat of this recipe....it is delicious! I subbed pintos for the kidney beans, just a personal preference. I don't really like kidney beans. The smell while this is cooking drove everyone crazy, so its no wonder they just dug in! Thanks for sharing a yummy recipe.

This recipe is awesome! I used it today at a church BBQ to feed 100 people and it received great reviews.

I live in NE Indiana, and am a self taught cook. I love watching any and all cooking shows (although I watch the shows to learn techniques more than for recipe ideas.) My favorites are Justin Wilson (the cookin cajun), Alton Brown, Iron Chef, Tyler Florence (Food 911 & How to Boil Water), and Martin Yan. Steven Raichlen is a BBQ god (sorry Bobby Flay but you dont even come in 2nd that distinction goes to the Baron of Barbecue Paul Kirk) <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
