In a 2 quart casserole, put a layer of beans, a layer of onions and half of the simmered mixture. Repeat and then top it all with the cut up bacon. Bake at 350º about 45 minutes or so. You can vary the time to make it dryer or moister, just make sure the bacon is done.

Notes: These are stupendously good! A side dish for a cookout or main dish (as long as no one is looking), depending on how hungry you are. You can substitute other styles of baked beans for variation, but the original style baked beans work just great. This recipe is from a lady in Athens, Georgia, where I lived for eleven years and learned to love grits, collards, and polk salad served by my southern spouse. I also learned that a little fatback can make any horrible thing taste good.
