Crock-tober entry: Bosque Beans



Nothing tastes like Halloween more than Bosque Beans.

Here is the recipe:



2 lbs hamburger
1 lb bacon (remove fat and cut into pieces)

Dice:
2 large onions
1 or 2 medium green peppers
1 medium head celery

5 15-oz cans red kidney beans
5 8-oz cans tomato sauce
1/2 c water
1 Teaspoon vinegar
1 Teaspoon Worcetershire sauce
Salt & pepper to taste

Crumble 2 lbs of hamburger into hot pot after frying bacon until crispy and draining off grease. Fry hamburger until done.
Drain grease. Add celery, onions and green peppers. Stir well and add remaining ingredients.
Cook in crockpot for about 5 hours on low or 3 hours on the stove (stir often on stove).
Enjoy aroma.
Just before serving, add brown sugar to taste and stir well.

Serve with cornbread and honeybutter.
Happy Halloween!

Jodi,

I can't believe that none of my recipes are on here. Especially the Jack Daniels sauce that Jacob likes so much.
