Better than Bush’s Baked Beans

I think most people would agree that Bush’s baked beans are good. I was hesitant to try making homemade baked beans because it’s hard to improve on something that everyone already likes. But I decided to try to make them anyway, and they are really good!

These beans are definitely better than store bought, and my family would agree. I have taken this bean dish to several family get-together’s and they loved it and all wanted the recipe.

(If you are going to take this dish to someone’s house make sure you have one of these amazing thermal casserole carriers to keep your dish warm!). I LOVE mine and use it all the time to take dishes to church potlucks.

Okay, so I guess this recipe is cheating a little. You do start out with store bought pork and beans. The secret is to add the bacon and hamburger to the store bought beans and it turns plain pork and beans into a real treat. (If you are not using store bought canned beans than substitute 4 cups of cooked beans).
