Boy these were delicious! I only used 1/2 lb. of sage sausage because I wanted the meat to be in the "background" in this dish. I also sauteed the onions in the sausage pan before I added them to the crock pot. I will make these again and again.

Made this today instead of the plain ole beans and it was delicious and a huge hit! After reading the reviews I used sweet italian sausage instead of the hamburger and it was great. I'm not usually a bean eater but, I really enjoyed these!

I have looked for a great recipe for baked beans for 30 years...this is it folks!!! I will NEVER use a different recipe again. Like others, I substituted Hot Jimmy Dean sausage for the hamburger meat and left out the Tobasco altogether (as I was taking it to a church pot-luck where there were lots of kids). I have never had so many requests for a recipe before. This is incredible!

I made this yesterday for a work pot-luck and it got rave reviews! I used hot and spicy BBQ sauce and only 2T of Tabasco, plus the sausage that others had recommended. I also drained the liquid off the top of the cans of beans and the consistency was great.

Doubled the recipe as is without any substitutions; they were a BIG hit for my nephews graduation party. I gave him a couple of recipes to selection from and he chose this one and wasn't disappointed. I'm sure next get together I'll get a request to bring the beans. FYI - doubled this filled to the top a 7 quart slow cooker. I borrowed by neighbors Hamilton Beach 6-Quart Stay or Go Slow Cooker which has a lockdown lid to prevent spills and built in handles for carrying. I've put one on my Christmas list.

Wow for complete, robust, full flavor. These were awesome! Instead of using the canned beans, I cooked up some dry beans.

Really tasty! My guests really liked these beans. Two of my kids liked it, too and they normally don't like baked beans. I do recommend draining two of the bans of beans first so it will be thicker. Planning to make again this week for a pot-luck.

I've been making these beans since I found the recipes a couple years ago. The ONLY thing I change is adding bacon. I fry it until just done then rip in pieces and toss in crockpot. I've found that sometimes it's watery and sometimes not, so draining atleast 1 can of the beans would be a good idea. Always asked to make these for picnics...extremely easy!

Great recipe, the only change I made was I used Jimmy Dean sausage instead of hamburger. I made them for my daughter graduation party and they were a hit! Not too hot, not to sweet, just right!

For our palate they were a little sweet and not quite spicy enough. We will make them again with a tweak or two for sure. I used half the meat called for and thought it was the perfect amount for a side dish, or could leave it out and not miss for a side too.

This is absolutely the best recipe for baked beans I have ever tried. I take them to an annual pig roast on Canada Day every year and almost everyone wants the recipe. I prefer with with no meat added and the lack of meat does not change the flavour one bit.

My whole family loves these beans!! (And we are not really 'bean people'.) I do use pork sausage instead of hamburger, but other than that, I follow the recipe exactly. I have taken it to a Cowboys football party and everyone LOVES!!

Took them to a cookout and people loved them, I did leave out the Tabasco since I was not sure how spicy other people like their food, and added a little yellow mustard and some worchestershire sauce. People ask for the recipe.

Extremely excellent! Very hot/spicy and wonderful flavor. I used Louisianna hot sauce instead of Tabasco and baked mine in the oven instead of crock pot. I don't like crock pots much, everything comes out wet and floating in liquid. I put them in a big baking pan and baked them at 350º for about an hour. It worked great. I prefer baked beans to be thick, not swimming in juice. I used two 32 ounce cans of Van Camps regular pork and beans and drained the excess juice off the top of the cans. I used pork sausage instead of hamburger and it was so good. I cooked the onions with the sausage when I browned it. Fantastic baked beans!

These were great - my 8 year old step-son loved them! I made exactly as described though I only added 2 tblsp of Tabasco (it still had a nice kick) and I did drain some of the bean liquid. Yum!

Wow, were these good!! Used 1 lb. sausage as I was suggested in the reviews and a 1/2 can of green chilis per guests tastes. I was very concerned they would be to spicey for a particular guests, but he loved them. I too have never been a big baked bean fan, but I'm now converted!! The recipe was easy to follow and the taste is supreme!
