Calico Beans
Kathy Goodman
I think I got this recipe in Texas, so I have probably been making it since Dan was 4 years old.
ingredients
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1/2 lb. bacon
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup catsup
- 1 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 Tbs. vinegar
- 1 tsp. dry mustard
- 1 can pork and beans
- 1 can kidney beans
- 1 can baby lima beans
- 1 can butter beans
directions
- 1
Brown and drain the first 3 items. If you brown the hamburger and bacon together, the hamburger will retain a pink color, so you may want to brown them separately.
- 2
Mix the next six ingredients together (you can adjust the salt and the sugars to taste).
- 3
Drain and wash only the kidney beans as they tend to be slimy.
- 4
Mix all the ingredients together in a good size bean pot (4 qt. casserole size).
- 5
Bake covered for 1 hour or more at 350, or for three to four hours at 250. Serves at least 8.
