Xmas Dinner...

Dinner was good. The company has gone. We are sated and tired. Everything was tasty. I basically used the sauce from my macaroni & cheese recipe for the Au Gratin Potatoes, and the cheesy topping browned beautifully. Gina decided this batch of BBQ Beans was her favorite of the ones I have made. I thought beans with a bit of a peach overtone would go well with the peach-glazed ham. They were really simple...

Easy Peachy BBQ Beans

3 36-ounce cans pork & beans, drained

1-1/2 to 2 cups BBQ sauce of choice

3/4 to 1 cup peach preserves

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

A handful of bacon odds & ends, or scraps

Combine everything well in a crockpot, turn on high heat, and cover. When the beans reach a boil, crack the lid so that moisture can gradually escape. Cook for several hours, or all day, until the beans have thickened. Serve.
