Method

1. 1

   Dice the onions and bell peppers into a small, even dice.

2. 2

   In a very large stock pot, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the onion and bell pepper; sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to turn golden.

   ⏱Start 5:00
3. 3

   Drain and rinse the butter beans, black-eyed peas, kidney beans, and lima beans in a colander under cold water (do not rinse the pork and beans or chili beans — their sauce adds flavor and body).

4. 4

   Add all the beans to the pot with the sautéed onion and pepper.

5. 5

   Stir in the yellow mustard, ketchup, brown sugar, and honey (or cane syrup/molasses).

6. 6

   Add the Dixie Dust and stir until everything is evenly combined and the sauce coats all the beans.

7. 7

   Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching on the bottom, until heated through and slightly thickened.

   ⏱Start 10:00
8. 8

   Taste and adjust sweetness or seasoning as needed before serving warm.
