This was a great base recipe. I used beef broth instead of water and bacon instead of a ham hock. I also am not a huge vinegar fan, so I only used about a tablespoon total. It turned out really amazing with these changes! I cooked these beans in the crockpot for about six hours on low.

This tasted like nothing, really. I have no idea why the reviews are so good. All of the food was cooked perfectly, and I did take the advice of adding the potatoes with the corn. However, it just tasted like I had boiled everything in a pot of water. It smelled great, but I really didn't get any spice coming through. I will not make this again.

This was good dough. I rated it 4 instead of 5 because I am still looking for "it," the perfect crust. The only thing I did different was using a cup of white whole wheat in place of some of the AP flour because I ran out of AP. I used the Exquisite Pizza Sauce recipe on this site to go with it, and it was perfect. This recipe makes 4 personal pan-style pizzas perfectly.
