Blue Nine-Patch

 


I’d been whining for weeks that nobody does potlucks anymore. And then I was actually invited to one. It was a cast party picnic in the park before closing night of The Drowsy Chaperone, but the orchestra and stage hands were also invited. (That never, ever happens.) I thought long and hard about what to share. I knew no one would bring anything hot, or homemade. (I was right. At least eight people brought bags of chips.) So, I made this:

 

Slow Cooker BBQ Baked Beans

 

3 pounds ground beef

1 pound bacon, chopped

1 cup onion, chopped

3 16-ounce cans baked beans

16-ounce can dark kidney beans, drained

16-ounce can lima beans, drained

1 cup ketchup

1/2 cup brown sugar

3 teaspoons liquid smoke

3 tablespoons vinegar

 

Brown and drain beef and bacon. Dump into slow cooker with remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low 5 hours. Great as a side dish or main course.
