• 3. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon bits to serve if desired.
• 4. *Special tip that a reviewer wrote: I tested the recipe,added some fried bacon and the left over bacon drippings, and smoked the beans for four hours on my Traeger Pellet Smoker. The recipe was spot on, even the chile sauce (Hienz Chili) was right. It was like being at Love's all over again.
