I cooked the beans in the grease(no water added) as another reviewer had done,Mistake....The beans were too greasy tasting...Also I used a bacon with too much maple flavoring which really didnt do anything for the beans..I am not rating this recipe,just telling you all what not to do....

Great recipe! I didn't add water, but just cooked on low in the bacon grease forabout 30 minutes. I also added sliced almonds and used seasoned salt instead of regular table salt.
