My husband wants desperately for me to patent and sell this recipe to a canner, but I want to share it with you! It is a huge hit at Thanksgiving and Christmas in place of the standard green bean casserole.

BACON BROWN SUGAR GREEN BEANS



Bacon Brown Sugar Green Beans image

Don't let the name discourage you! With both bacon and brown sugar, this side dish is sure to please. I'm asked to bring these sweet green beans every year to family functions (and birthdays too). **TIPS** I cook the bacon pieces in a skillet until about halfway done before removing from heat and placing on paper towels to help absorb some of the grease. Skipping this process can cause your dish to be exceedingly greasy. If you desire crispier bacon, cook the pieces just a little longer than halfway done, since fully cooking the bacon pieces prior to baking will cause them to burn from the extra cooking in the oven. If you'd like the bacon pieces more tender rather than crispy, you can cover the dish with foil during all or part of the cooking, depending on preference :)
