I usually don't cook limas at home because I know they will never be as good as those I used to get at the restaurant I worked at in high school, but this recipe comes close. First time I made it, I was too impatient and didn't let them simmer long enough. Though a little hard for my taste, they were still outstanding. When I let them cook the full time, they were to die for!

These were great! Made them last night after I realized I didn't have any BBQ sauce to make lima beans the way I usually do. We were all pleasantly surprised at the outcome. However, I do need to mention that I used 2 tbs. onion powder and 1 tsp. minced garlic in them instead of chopped onion. Wonderful!

This was good, but not much different from the way I usually do lima beans. I've never met a bean I didn't like! I have to take issue with the reviewer who preached to southerners. The reviewer painted with a very broad brush. Yes, there is obesity among many southerners as with other parts of the country, but a very large number are fit and watch what they eat. Some, unfortunately, cannot afford to eat healthy.

The original recipe seemed a little flat so I improvised. First I omitted the water, broth was more then enough liquid. I sauteed shallots & garlic in butter instead of cooking spray. Simmered the beans on low for about 30 minutes and took the lid partially off so the beans would absorb the remaining broth. Once the beans were cooked completely, I added more butter, Creole seasoning salt and pepper. DELISH!!!!

I can't usually get my husband to eat lima beans at all, but this recipe made them interesting enough even for him. I loved them as well and will for sure make this again!

I can't say its bad but it is nothing spectacular. I rather make Lima beans with canned tomatoes, in a more Greek manner.

Great way to cook lima beans. We all liked them very much. I cooked mine in the crock pot all day. Turned out wonderful!! I had a bag of dried baby limas that I cleaned and soaked over night. I added more chicken broth and only put 1/2 tablespoon of dried minced onion also a little sea salt. They smelt great all day and leftovers froze well.

I have never been a big fan of lima beans, but really like Glory brand...when I saw this recipe, I hoped it would be as good as Glory, but homemade and reasonably healthy. It is that and SOOOO GOOD! I really, really like this recipe and it will be mine from now on!

My husband asked for Lima Beans for Fathers day and I decided to try these and he loved them. The first time I made them with chicken boullion which he much prefered over the canned chicken broth I used the second time. I will make these again, with bouillon

These were good. I was expecting more flavor. They are better if you add salt.

Straight forward and so very easy. The only reason it got a four from me is because I felt it needed some salt. Will definitley use this recipe every time I make lima beans now!

Very good, everyone enjoyed them. The only suggestion would be for some salt and pepper before serving. Thank you for the recipe.

This recipe is really good. I grew up eating lima beans and serve them to my family as well. I have always lived in the South and have never added butter to lima beans as stated in other reviews.
