These are really good. Once I saw the sugar and butter I was sold. I will make these again. I used fresh string beans. I couldn't imagine canned. Turned out wonderful! The bacon and the green beans were sweet and savory.

Absolutely delicious! I even skipped the brown sugar and they were still fabulous. I did use frozen green beans because I thought they were easier to handle than canned green beans. I will definitely make these again!

My daughter in law had these for Christmas Dinner and I decided to try them for the Super Bowl party. They were a huge hit, but next time I will use fresh green beans as suggested by other reviewers. Posting for the first time, but I love alllrecipes.com. Hooked up by my daughter and it has been a daily internet relationship since.

What can I say...you start of with healthy green beans, then you add butter, brown sugar, and bacon! No one alive could resist that! Tastes & looks great and is actually very easy to make.

Tried these for supper tonight and they were the best green beans I have ever eaten. Will definitely have these many times in the future.

I have been making these for about 25 years now. The only thing different is that the recipe I have calls for frozen petite green beans(CW). Also says to use center cut bacon. Used both and are equally good. I am going to try with the canned beans because it will make it a lot less expensive to make.

My late mother-in-law got this recipe years ago from an Iowa transplant to NW Arkansas who called them "Bean Stacks"... it has been a family get-together favorite ever since. (Some make it the easy way, without all the wrapping mess, tho.)

As most everyone has said, this is an amazing recipe: delicious, easy, beautiful presentation. It is way better with fresh green beans, steamed slightly before baking. I only make it for very special occasions though, because of the calorie count. At 608 per serving, it uses up 1/2 of my daily allotment and I haven't even looked at meat, potatoes, salad or DESSERT, let alone breakfast & lunch!!!!

Simply awesome! I used fresh green beans and blanched them slightly and they were perfect. I did find that there was too much glazing liquid, so when I make it the second time (with frozen beans this time - also worked well), I cut the liquid and drained it well before serving. Absolutely the hit of Christmas dinner!
