Notes

Add chopped hot dogs for even more cowboy fun!

Cub note: I consider this to be a base recipe. In the version I prefer I use 2 cans of pork and beans (or a large one) and 2 cans of other beans. I like to mix them up but almost always one is a kidney bean. Add bacon if you like that! Add anything that could be associated with a hamburger or hot dog, and don't just cook local - add celery seed to bring in a bit of Chicago! Serve it with anything you'd serve a hot dog or hamburger with. Coleslaw, French Fries, and unsurprisingly a delicious topping for baked potatoes. Get crazy with it.
