A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Great recipe! We call these "Aunt Betty Beans" because she always made them for our family reunions. I've never seen this recipe anywhere else before today.
what can I substitute for molasses
You should be able to substitute any of the following: honey, dark corn syrup, or maple syrup.

I add the sour cream during the end. I just drizzle the molasses on and mix it up then stir in the sour cream during the last hour as I don't like dairy ingredients cooked more than that in the crock pot. The beans get very nice and tender cooking in the crockpot.

I like the molasses flavor so I used 3 tbsps of it and reduced the brown sugar a little bit.

THis is WONDERFUL. It isn't a pretty dish of beans because they will be thick but the taste makes up for that. If you are looking for a wonderful new kick to a plain bean this is the recipe for you.
