Patty Beans

Baked Beans w/ground beef and bacon

Growing up in Jersey, this recipe was a favorite by Patty Visioli back in 1985. Everyone loves these baked beans, and swears they are the absolute BEST baked beans they’ve ever had! I’ve been making them all my adult life, and I agree it’s a total crowd pleaser and favorite at any BBQ.
