We've used the recipe for years, i and any one else who eats loves it and always wants the recipe. Great for bbqs or party, after you bown the meat and onion just toss every thing in a crockpot let cook for a while then your good to go.

I made this for the super bowl and it was fantastic. Everyone loved it and it was very easy to make. I only used 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 Tbsp. molasses, 1 Tbsp. prepared mustard and added a 15 oz. can of great northern beans (all beans and juices from cans went into the baked beans). Thanks so much for this great recipe.

My husband's mom gave me this recipe as it is one of my husband's childhood favorites! He absolutely loves these and requests these whenever I ask him for dinner ideas, LOL! I drain and rinse the beans well to cut down on sodium, and I also use dried ground mustard (the recipe just says mustard, so I wasn't sure which one you meant). Never a lot of leftovers in our family and always a hit at potlucks, bbqs, etc!

These beans are wonderfull. This is the second time I am making them at the familys request.I just realized I forgot to rate it. The only change I made was to cut back on the sugar.I used 1/4 cup brown sugar and half of 1/4 cup of white. The family prefers there beans less sweet.Also I did not drain any of the beans. Thanks so much we will make these many times more.

OMG! Aunt Paula your recipe is divine! I doubled the recipe but only used the 1/3 cup of brown sugar and no white. Added garlic powder, cumin and New Mexico Chile Powder. My friend doesn't like onions in stuff so I used onion powder. I'm not a bean fan but I hope there's some left for the party! Cooked them in the crockpot and good to go! Thank you so much for this divine recipe!
