Whether you are using wild hog pork chops or a domesticated variety you picked up at the store, this recipe is tasty either way. I like casseroles for hunting season. You can keep them warm since you never know when your hunter will be coming or going, they are a crowd pleaser if you’re feeding a whole crew and they stick to the ribs and satisfy stomachs for long periods. If you are feeding quite a few people, double up and make 2 pans while you have all the ingredients out. That’s what I do!

Hooray for one-pot meals! They are no fuss, make a limited mess and can fill a lot of bellies. Cowboy Beans are a crowd pleaser, and they are incredibly versatile. You can serve them as a side dish or a main course. You can add just about anything to a pot of Cowboy Beans and you can’t go wrong. For this version, we use ground venison and bacon, the flavors are delicious, plus it makes the beans incredibly hearty and filling. You can use any beans you like, just substitute your favorite varieties for those you see here. Happy eating friends!
