This looks very similar to an old "family" recipe that my grandmother always said she got off the back of a can of Campbell's beans..

This IS the recipe from the back of the Campbell's Pork and Beans can from many years ago! I have been making this for over 35 years. Highly recommend it! A definite crowd pleaser. A great dish to take to potluck dinners.
