Description

Calico beans are a satisfying cross between chili, baked beans, and a sloppy joe filling. Full of a homemade barbecue-style sauce, these calico beans are meaty, tangy, salty, and deliciously perfect for any barbecue, picnic, or potluck you are heading to!

1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
