This was very good, I think I would drain the pork & beans next time- it was a little bit more liquidy then I prefer. I might also omit one of the meets, probably the smoked sausage. Loved it though!

Love these type of one dish meals, especially when serving a larger crowd. The made as directed but using mini cheddarwurst sausages and just 1 medium onion. This is packed with delicous flavor, but next time we will add just 1/2 cup of brown sugar as it was extremely sweet with the 1 1/2 cups called for. After tasting, we had to tone the sweetness down, so we added 2 more cans of beans and another 1/2 lb of sausage which helped somewhat. Overall a great recipe that we will make again. Thanks for sharing.

We really loved these! But I think we're going to call these 'The Three Little Pigs Beans." Why? Because they have bacon, smoked sausage, AND ham! And it's so easy to "pig out" on them if you're not careful! Thanks for posting Gail! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
