      I made this for a potluck. Following the recipe closely, making minor substitutions with what I had on hand. I added a couple packages of sliced Oscar Meyer weiners instead of bacon. Everyone loved it. No leftovers.

      Question: for 20 ppl it’s 2 55 oz cans beans, (110 oz) when you double it it says 114 oz ? So to double the recipe you only add 4 more oz of beans?? Am I confused?? Ha please advise

        You're so sweet to ask! This is a recipe I plan on filming again soon. If you're doubling it, it would be 4 55oz cans. That auto calculator didn't double it correctly. I will make it fix it on the back end 🙂
