Recipe Notes
Basic info:- Do not worry about putting raw bacon in this dish, it cooks along with the beans and imparts amazing flavor.
- Home canned beans beat store bought beans hands down any day. If you don't have home canned then store bought are fine.
- Drain the water from the canned beans first.
- For Butter: Vegetable oil or any unflavored grease but not olive oil. Olive oil adds a different flavor. You could also use bacon grease if you have it.
- For Chicken Broth: 1 bouillon cube plus 1 cup of water.
- Instead of brown sugar: It's ok to use granulated white sugar, raw sugar, honey or maple syrup but the honey and maple syrup will impart a different taste.
- Bacon: 1/2 tsp liquid smoke
- Canned Beans: Fresh green beans, but allow to cook longer.
