The first year we were married, I brought this to my husband’s extended family Christmas celebration. I have been required to bring it every year since (this will be #20!). The original recipe calls for bacon, but I’m a vegetarian so have always left it out and I always use vegetarian baked beans. I also usually double the recipe in my 5-quart crock pot.
Simmer vinegar, brown sugar, garlic powder, chili powder, dry mustard, salt, chili flakes (if using) and onion together over medium heat for about 20 minutes.
While this mixture is simmering, drain and rinse lima, kidney and butter beans. I usually use whatever beans I have on hand, and have successfully used pinto, cannelini, great northern, etc.
Put all drained beans into a crock pot. Add baked beans, vinegar mixture and crumbled bacon, if using. Cook on low for 3 hours. You can also bake this in the oven at 350 degrees F for one hour if you don’t have a crock pot.
