Another of my husband's favorites. I got this recipe out of a cookbook called "Dining with Pioneers". It's apparently a collection of recipes by a group from Tennessee. This one was submitted by someone named Mae Hallum from Memphis.

Time 1h40m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb bacon
3 lbs ground beef
3 cups chopped onions
1 cup chopped celery
2 beef bouillon cubes
2/3 cup water, boiling
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups catsup
3 tablespoons mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 (29 ounce) cans baked beans with molasses

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven or other large, heavy, oven proof pot fry bacon until crisp and set aside.
  • Drain fat.
  • In the same pan, cook ground beef, onion and celery until meat in brown and the onion and celery are tender.
  • Meanwhile, dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water.
  • Add bouillon to meat mixture with the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Cover and bake 1 hour and 15 minutes in a 375 degree oven until hot and bubbly.
  • Crumble bacon over beans and serve.
  • This makes a LOT of beans. I usually halve the recipe.
