Lorraine’s Famous Chuck-Wagon Beans

3    Lbs. Lean Hamburger	1 ½    Cups of Ketchup
3    Cups chopped Onion	1 ½    Tsp. of Salt
1    Cup chopped Celery	½       Tsp. of Pepper
2    Packs of powdered OXO	½       Cup of Molasses to taste
3    Tbsp. Prepared Mustard	1 ½    Cloves of Garlic mashed
2    Cans Beans (29oz. Total)

  

Cook hamburger in a large roaster and drain well.

Then add onion & celery and cook for 15 minutes.

Add in the remaining ingredients and bake at 350* for approx. 1 ½ hrs.

1 lb of bacon partly cooked to get most of the grease out of it. Note: cut it up into bit size pieces

(you can also use some the rind from a ham bone in or just use some chunks of ham to give it more flavor.)

Most of the time it was done on the BBQ but it can also be done in an oven or slow cooker with good results.
