Jeanne's Potluck Beans

This recipe was given to me by my friend and co-worker Jeanne Miller. She was a great cook and these beans were a hit at many an end-of-season party at Fort Stevens State Park. Jeanne, Jeanne, Reservation Queen! You are missed.

Potluck Beans

1/2 Lb Bacon, Diced

1/2 Lb Hamburger

Grandpa Christy on right
ca 1928, Alaska

1/2 onion, Chopped

1 can Kidney Beans, drained

1 can Butter Beans, drained

1 can Pork & Beans, UNdrained

1/2 cup Catsup

1 to 2 Tbs barbeque sauce

1 tsp salt

1 tsp dry mustard

1/2 cup brown Sugar

1/4 cup pineapple juice *

2 Tbs vinegar

     (Jeanne didn't say what type, I generally use apple cider vinegar)

Brown bacon in a dutch oven.  Add hamburger and onion and cook until browned. Add all remaining ingredients to bacon and hamburger mixture.  Cook over medium heat until liquid is reduced (or you can bake in casserole in 350° oven). Can be kept warm in a crock pot if serving at a party.

* I usually just put in a small can of crushed pineapple
