Notes
♥ Canned pork and beans come in a variety of tinned sizes and any sized cans can be used as long as there are between 28 and 32 ounces.♥ Always use a full pound of bacon. ♥ This recipe calls for 1 pound of bacon that is then cooked well and crumbled. Generally, a pound of uncooked bacon will reduce by half after cooking. Therefore, if purchasing already cooked bacon you will need ½ pound for this recipe.♥ This dish can be prepared in advance and refrigerated until ready to bake.♥ The absolute minimum baking time is 2 hours for the flavors to meld.♥ Low and slow is best for flavor. This dish can be baked unattended for up to 4 hours.Original Recipe by Mrs. White, 1985. Recipe Updated by Jan Nunes, 8/07/2018.
