3 Bean Casserole

Before the Summer is officially over, you have to try these beans. They go really great with the Baby Back Rib recipe I posted a couple weeks ago. I decided to take a picture of the different beans that go into the dish, because the “Butter Beans” can be hard to find. In the local Foodtown they go by the name, Limagrands and its the Superfine brand.

8 strips of bacon, diced
1 large onion, chopped
2 (28 oz.) cans baked beans
2 (15 oz.) cans butter beans, drained
1 (16 oz.) can black beans, drained

Sauce

1/4 Cup Ketchup
1/2 Cup White Vinegar
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp dry mustard
1/2 Cup brown sugar

Directions:

Partially fry bacon. Remove from pan and saute onions until soft. Drain fat if any left.

Place beans in a large casserole dish (9 x 13); add bacon and onions.

Blend sauce ingredients in pan and simmer 3 minutes. Mix with beans and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

Can be made a day ahead and reheated in oven. If the beans seems dry, make up another batch of sauce but half the amount and add.

   Thank you for putting a picture with a product. I love Superfine limagrands (yellow/butter) are perfect for me. Source of carbs, protein and fiber and no fat, or cholesterol (I rinse them in the can to decrease the high salt). NOBODY carries them in New York City. Gristedes use to. I bought their last 2 cases last year. If anyone knows a vendor in ‘the’ city (I live in Chelsea) that carries them, please post it. Thank you for a very nice site.

   Hi Amber,

   I did a Google search and came up with this online store where you can actually order Superfine Limagrands.
   http://www.shopfoodex.com/superfine-limagrands-with-sauce-p-36358.html

   Don’t know anything about them, but it might be worth checking out. I was trying to locate the distributor to see if they list where the beans are available, but my quick search didn’t come up with anything.

   Thanks for visiting, and if you do get your hands on the Limagrands, please try this recipes. It’s really tasty.
