Make Something Monday ... Crockpot Bean Dinner

I also wanted to show this off for Crockpot Wednesday :)

I made this for Caden's party and it was a hit one I recommend over and over again to anyone. Ok so here's the story with the beans. I went to the grocery store the morning of the party, yes I know hello to many things going on as usual! So I of course forgot my recipe, and you know Rick would be useless if I asked him to search for it. So I called up a friend of mine to do an internet search of baked bean recipes. She found a version of this, why I say version is because she and I have no clue where she found the recipe she gave me. All I have is the back of a bill I wrote the recipe on, it was crazy so I give you what I believe it was ... LOL it's pretty darn close if not exact!

Side Note this calls for Liquid smoke, now I have never used it before so I thought what the heck I'll pick it up it was only like $2 so why not. This stuff rocks and you'll love the taste it gives the meal!
