Tip: Read directions completely before preparing.
Ingredients:
6 cans (15 oz) Butter Beans (preferably Hanover)
1 medium onion, diced
12 oz bacon, diced into 1 inch pieces
14 oz bottle ketchup
1 tablespoon mustard
1 cup whisky, bourbon (Wild Turkey)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup reserved butter bean liquid
Directions:
Open cans of beans, drain the liquid, and set 3/4 cup of the liquid aside.
Heat large deep skillet over medium heat, then add bacon and fry.
When the bacon is crispy, drain grease, except about 2 tablespoons. Add onions to skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add Bourbon, and deglaze the pan, stirring and removing brown bits from bottom.
Add ketchup (add 1/2 cup or more if you like it sweet), 1/2 cup reserved liquid from beans, and finally add the mustard.
Bring to boil, then stir in butter beans, bring to boil again, than turn off.
Pour into a large baking dish and bake for 60 minutes at 325, place a dish pan or sheet pan underneath in case it boils over. Enjoy!
Tip: Did you know that Butter beans, sometimes called lima beans, are a seed, and are considered a vegetable!
