OLD WEST BAKED BEANS

This slow-baked molasses-and-mustard-flavored western favorite is a perfect party food because it can be made days ahead and just gets better with time. Enjoy it while watching Blazing Saddles,, which, according to creator Mel Brooks, is best seen on video. Claims Brooks, "I can't watch Blazing Saddles on television ... A lot of prudes got together and silly people got together and they cut out everything they thought would be offensive to a 4-year-old."

WESTERN BEANS

I've made these zesty beans many times for picnics and potlucks-they're hearty and zippy with chili pepper and the extra flavor of lentils in the ban mix. The recipe can be made ahead and heated before serving. -Arthur Morris, Washington, Pennsylvania

BEST IN THE WEST BAKED BEANS

I think I clipped this recipe out of the newspaper years ago. It is always a huge hit at picnics, barbecues and get togethers. It's a nice change from the more traditional baked beans. I can't even begin to guess how many times I have handed out the recipe.

Steps:

Brown beef, bacon and onion in large skillet. Drain.
Combine all ingredients except beans, mix well.
Add beans and stir gently.
Bake one hour in a 325 to 350 oven (or until hot a bubbly).
This recipe can easily be cut in half since it makes a rather large batch. I only use half the bacon. If you would like, you could add some more beef if cutting back on the bacon.

Ingredients

1 lb extra lean ground beef
1 lb bacon, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons yellow mustard
4 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon pepper
2 (16 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
2 (16 ounce) cans pork and beans
2 (16 ounce) cans lima beans, drained
