The outstanding barbecue taste of these beans makes them a favorite for cookouts all summer and into the fall. It's a popular dish with everyone—even kids. Having meat in with the beans is so much better than plain pork and beans. —Donna Fancher, Lawrence, Indiana

Best ever baked beans. This dish is requested for almost every function I attend. I also omit white sugar and increase brown sugar.

Oh so good! I eliminated the white sugar and substituted chili beans for the lima beans since I didn't have lima beans on had. This dish is absolutely delish! Tip: Don't worry if the bacon doesn't fully cook in the frying pan with the ground beef and onion, it will finish cooking in the oven.

I've never been a big fan of baked beans, but this recipe has changed that! I served this for a picnic and everybody loved it. I, too, eliminated the white sugar and used a little extra molasses. I also substituted black beans for the lima beans and added a little chicken broth because it looked too dry. Turned out great!

This has become an absolute family favorite. It is a must for all family get-togethers. I essemble this ahead of time, and refrigerate in large zip lock bags. Then pour into baking dish and bake when I arrive at a function. I have also cooked this in the slow cooker with great results
