Southern Baked Beans

We are having Baked Beans tonight at a family potluck.  We are making them 2 ways and I will share those ways with you so you can either make both or choose the one that suits your family best.  The only difference is whether you add cooked bacon or cooked sausage.  Both are delicious!
