Total Time: 1 hr 30 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• Servings: 16
• 1 (28 ounce) can lamb and beans in tomato sauce
• 15 ounces great northern beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can butter beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can light kidney beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can dark red kidney beans
• 1 lb bacon, 1/2 dice
• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 1/2-1 cup brown sugar
• 1/4-1/2 cup yellow mustard
• 1/4-1/2 cup maple syrup or 1/4-1/2 cup karo syrup

Recipe

• 1 in a large saute pan fry the bacon and onions together until the bacon is mostly cooked and the onions are translucent.
• 2 in a large bean pot or oven safe bowl add all the beans (if you like your beans extra thick then drain some of the juice off of all the beans except the lamb and beans).
• 3 add the brown sugar, yellow mustard, and maple or karo syrup to the beans - start with the lowest amount for each.
• 4 using a slotted spoon add the bacon and onion mixture to the beans leaving most of the bacon fat in the pan.
• 5 mix everything together ensuring that the brown sugar is disolved.
• 6 taste - this is a very important step! adjust with brown sugar, yellow mustard, and maple or karo syrup to suite your tastes.
• 7 bake at 375 for 1 hour or longer - until the beans thicken to your liking.
