My brother, Jerry, has been making these baked beans for years. They have become “Jerry’s Baked Beans”, even though I believe they were his ex-wife’s recipe. Shhhhh! We wont tell anyone else.
In any case…..this has been a family favorite for a few years and shows up randomly at get-togethers (especially in the summer) and parties. The taste is so rich and deep, and yet there arent that many ingredients in it. Know why? Because of the BACON.
That’s right…..bacon makes everything better. Definitely true for this dish. I cooked the onions in some of the bacon fat from the bacon. It definitely added to the flavor even more!
I made it for the first time for Supper Club a couple weeks ago. It could NOT be easier to put together – and the reaction you will get will make you giggle since this is hardly any work at all!
