pork and beans

Canned cookout combo

Pork and beans is a dish of white beans cooked in tomato sauce with small pieces of pork, typically salt pork or bacon.

It's a staple of American home cooking and canned goods, associated with simple, filling meals: We packed pork and beans for the camping trip.

The pork content is often minimal—a few cubes swimming among the beans.
