This recipe came from a family reunion of mostly Mennonites. It is over 30 years old. . You can choose different beans according to your family's tastes, but keep the pork and beans as a base. I often take a big pot of these to large gatherings or pitch-in-suppers, and everyone enjoys them. —Jane Bone, Cape Coral, Florida
