Calico Beans (Baked Beans W/ 3 Kinds of Beans),This is one of my favorite cookout side dishs! My Aunt Char makes these all the time and I finaly got the recipe from her! They are a great side dish with hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad…the list goes on and they are yummy!,This is a great base recipe. The flavor is fantastic but I didn’t like the original proportions. I grew up with calico beans being beans with some meat thrown in, but this recipe was more like hamburger with a few beans thrown in. I ended up doubling all the beans that were used, and to compensate used about 1.5x the amount of flavorings that were called for. Except for the vinegar. I really don’t love vinegar so I left that at 2 tsp. I also used a full pack of bacon. And then cooked it all in the same skillet. Cooked the bacon, set it aside and drained the pan, cooked the beef, drained it again, then threw everything together and cooked over medium-low heat for 30-40 minutes. It tasted wonderful.,28 oz can of Bushes Best baked beans, added 1/2 c water, more bacon, no salt (but used salt and pepper when cooking ground beef and onions).
