METHODIST BEANS !!


Mrs. Louie Guess. Brookhaven Mississippi

6 strips of bacon
Bacon drippings
1 rib celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb. Ground beef
1 can baked beans (Bush's? large)
3 T. Brown sugar
2 t. Worcestershire sauce
2 t. Coleman’s mustard (dry)
1 cup of ketchup
salt and pepper to taste

Fry the bacon, set aside to drain. Brown the onions and celery in bacon drippings. Remove the vegatables and brown the beef in the same fat. Stir with a fork to make the meat particles separate. Return the onion and celery to the pan. Add the crumbled bacon, beans and the remaining ingredients. Bake in a casserole for about 45 minutes at 375 degrees. This may be prepared well ahead of time and baked before serving.
