I would give this 10 stars if I could!!! I love the fact it uses a mixture of beans and the bacon goes in cooked and not raw. The Worcestershire sauce adds a wonderful flavor.

Love that the bacon is fried first. Nothing worse that finding what looks like raw bacon in baked beans. My 3 and 5 year old love them and ask for bacon candy beans on a regular basis.

This is a good baked been recipe. It makes a large batch so I froze some of it in 2 cup containers.

These were good, simple to assemble. Flavor was similar to other bean recipes I've tried.

I doubled the recipe and added 2lbs of maple sausage to make it a little more hearty. I also added a small can of diced chili's for some kick to counterbalance the sweetness of the brown sugar. Best baked beans I've ever made! Can't wait to take them to our potluck dinner tonight :)

I MADE THE RECIPE EXACTLY AS WRITTEN. VERY GOOD EVERYONE HAD SECONDS. MY HUSBAND DID MENTION THAT IT WAS A LITTLE TOO SWEET. SO, NEXT TIME I WILL USE ONLY 1/4 CUP BROWN SUGAR.

I have used this recipe since 1969. The only difference is I only use Campbells Pork & Beans and add a tablespoon of yellow mustard and cook in crock pot (in oven, not electric) for 40 minutes at 375 deg.
