Southern Lima Beans

Southern Lima Beans

Smoky and spicy Southern Lima Beans

 Southern Lima Beans were created for Thanksgiving and Christmas and is a fantastic side for turkey or ham. Every year our family gets together for holiday dinner and the kids always ask for our lima beans, it has become a tradition.

Sometimes I mix the leftover Southern Lima Beans with mashed potatoes, make patties and fry them in bacon grease until golden brown. 

We use this recipe in our Cajun Shepard’s Pie.

This dish is an awesome side for our P&L burgers.  Follow this link to get the P&L Burger recipe.
