I made this once for my dad and now my mom has to make it often. It's one of his favorites. --Suzanne Kern

This is an old recipe add baby lima beans and some form of chili pepper or tapatia or other hot sauce and you have my Mother's recipe. Add lib on the different styles of beans and spices to include italian if that's taboo with you. =) It's a camping favorite as it can be done in a kettle over a fire, in a frying pan or in an oven. If electricity is available we usually make it in the crock pot to save the skillets and such for other foods. Love this recipe myself! Have had many people over the years ask for it's recipe which originally came from my Great-Great Grandmother.Glad to see it here but you beat me to it. LOL!
