I like to make this dish for church potlucks. It's great for large groups. I always include at least six kinds of beans, but they're not the same every time.—Mary Lou Ringhand, Albany, Wisconsin

Left out the green beans and add some smoke. Great.

I tried it, and it turned out great! I was skeptical because I don't like beans much, but once it was cooked it was delicious, and the church loved it! Thanks for the recipe.
