4-Bean Baked Beans

 This fills all of the requirements: easy, tasty, and quick to prep!

I like to put it all together, then let it cook on low for a couple of hours in the crockpot before serving. This recipe is easily doubled for larger groups.

4 Bean Baked Beans

  • 1 15 oz. can butter beans, drained
  • 1 15 oz. can lima beans, drained
  • 1 15 oz. can kidney beans, drained
  • 1 16 oz. can pork & beans
  • 1/4 to 1/2 lb. bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 to 3/4 c. brown sugar (to taste)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 c. ketchup (to taste)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 c. white vinegar (to taste)
  • 1/4 c. molasses
  • 1 tsp. dry mustard

Gently mix beans together in a casserole dish or crock pot.  

In a saucepan, cook and stir bacon, onion, and garlic until bacon is cooked to choice.  Pour off excess fat.

Whisk last 5 ingredients together into the bacon mixture and simmer for a few minutes.  Pour sauce over beans and mix gently.

Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for an hour, or in a crock pot on low for 2 to 4 hours.
