"I created this recipe from a compilation of ol' school favs (betty crocker, searchlight, etc). The beans are tender and the sauce is light and have the beans the perfect blend of sweet and savory."

This got rave reviews at our BBQ this week! I didn't have any A-1, so I used some bbq sauce and Worcestershire instead, and substituted regular mustard for dry mustard. Other than that I followed the recipe. I had never made baked beans from scratch before, so I loved this recipe since it was so easy to follow and used ingredients that I had on-hand anyway. I am not a fan of overly-sweet foods, and this was just right for me. This is definitely a recipe I'll come back to!
