  1. I've made these quite a few times now and they've been a big hit every time. I'm not fond of lima beans so I use 2 cans of great northern beans instead. These have become a family favorite!
     
  2. This is very good. I followed all the ingredients except I didn't have any molasses or dark corn syrup. Made for Beverage Tag.
     
  3. I love these beans. They are almost exactly the same recipe my mom uses, and hers are called Calico Beans. I served these at my annual 4th of July picnic yesterday, and my guests loved them. A great hit! Thanks for posting. Made for Zingo! ZWT3.
     
  4. I cooked the bacon and drained before adding to the beans and meat. Skipped the lima beans just because I didn`t have them. The brown sugar I cut down to 1/2 and used molasses. Thanks And my Fourth of July crowd thanks you too.
     
  5. I love how these turned out! There's a nice balance of sweetness and spice, and a very rich texture. It makes a huge batch, suitable for a backyard barbecue with a bunch of your friends. I had to tweak it just a little bit, because I don't care for lima beans, so I used black beans instead. It was actually a nice visual contrast. I think I'll be getting requests for these beans frequently. They were a hit.

<p>Update: &nbsp;I have changed my profile picture in honor of my dear best friend and loyal companion that I lost to cancer on 6/25/11. Maxx was the best dog that anyone could ever hope to have in their life. &nbsp;Until we meet again, sweet boy, you will be forever in my heart and memories. I currently live in the country with two dogs (a 12 pound&nbsp;poodle mix&nbsp;named Suki and a new member to the family, a 7-month old(?) 7.5 pound terrier mix named Angel ). &nbsp; I got Angel from the dog pound a week after I lost my beloved Maxx. &nbsp;Suki and I both needed a new companion to help us cope with our loss. &nbsp;Nothing will ever replace Maxx, but she has helped to uplift Suki's spirit. I am a secretary for a county school board. I love to cook, bake, crochet, paint, sew, read and anything to do with crafts. I was born in Tokyo,Japan. My father was in the Air Force and my moher was Japanese. I love to cook (and eat) a variety of foods from many different nations. I especially like trying out new recipes and experimenting with both old and new recipes. I also love participating in the great Zaar events like the tag games, recipe swaps, and Zaar World Tours. I recently participated in my first RSC contest. I have definitely had a lot of fun since joining Recipezaar. Update - September 20, 2007 I am proud to announce that I have just been blessed with my first grandchild. My son and daughter-in-law have given me a beautiful little granddaughter. &nbsp;[URL=http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x147/Crafty_Lady_13/?action=view&curren;t=f6fd3ae3.pbw][IMG]http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x147/Crafty_Lady_13/th_102_0365-1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Make Reservation Online Create your own visitor map *************************************************** [Reply]</p>
