Key features

  • NUTRITIOUS AND HIGH IN FIBER: Lima beans are a very good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber. They are an excellent source of the trace mineral, molybdenum, an integral component of the enzyme sulfite oxidase, which is responsible for detoxifying sulfites.
  • DELICIOUS AND VERSITILE ADDITION TO YOUR MEAL: These beans are super hearty and have a deliciously earthy and buttery flavor. What more could a hungry soul ask for? Cook them all day in chicken stock in a slow cooker to make them creamy and velvety. Butter beans are a staple in the American South, from Native American succotash as a side dish to a main meal like Kentucky Burgoo (a savory stew commonly served at Kentucky Derby Day parties).
  • NON-GMO
  • GLUTEN FREE
  • MEETS THE HAYWARD STANDARD - The Hayward Standard is the name our growers gave our bean quality standard - which exceeds the top USDA requirements.

It's hard to find these beans! Great brand, great beans. Glad they are offered through Amazon, although pricier than they should be.

I read a complaint that someone had received a bag of broken up lima beans and that they were the small beans instead of the large beans.

I'm not sure what may have happened there but I can verify that the 25lb bag of Large Lima Beans I ordered have been absolutely fine!

I've only encountered a few beans that were broken so far.

They cook up really nice and taste great!

I got tired of paying ridiculous prices at the grocery store for a pound of lima beans and found this bulk 25lb bag to be the ticket!

I am totally impressed with quality of the Camellia Brand and I will be purchasing these again in the future!
Creamy and Delicious

Beautiful, high quality large lima beans. I love these butter beans!! These beans are very clean and unbroken. They cook up creamy and delicious. Buy them in the 25# bag for less per pound than the low quality store brand at your grocery. Then repackage with your Foodsaver or in mylar with O2 absorbers. Even just leaving them on the shelf in plain zip lock bags or in a food safe bucket with lid (get a free one at your local bakery) they'll stay fresh long time. Treat yourself and enjoy!!

💛💚â¤ï¸ðŸ’'💜 A review from Mrs. L.💜💚â¤ï¸ðŸ’'💛 My father-in-law was such a grand soul. Highly educated, well read, artistic, Loved classical as well as contemporary music. Recited poetry from memory at the breakfast table. He did not tolerate cooking very well, preferring to load the table with sumptuous feasts purchased from the deli or local bakeries. BUT! Every Thanksgiving and Christmas he soaked a bag of gigantic Lima beans. Then he painstakingly cooked and stirred and spiced and annotated a huge cast iron pot of those limas. When the concoction was mysteriously perfect, this gargantuan pot was shakily hoisted into the oven to bake for what seems hours. "Get outta the way!" he would yell, "I gotta get this thing in the oven!" My first Christmas at his house, I mistakenly wondered why there was such a reverence for this cooking endeavor with a bunch of dried Lima beans. The pot of limas took preference in the oven to all other dishes. Even the turkey AND THE HAM!!! Oh. my . Word.

Well, the limas turned out to be barbecued. And they were to die for. Absolutely totally unbelievable flavors and textures. The whole house smelled divine when they were cooking. They tasted slightly different every year. Always better as each year passed. It could also have been that with each passing year, I grew to love my father-in-law more and more and more.

But, there was no recipe, so when my beloved father-in-law passed away suddenly one Easter, when the winter holidays rolled around that year, we recognized another loss in a tradition that was woven into our family in the holidays. There would be no feasting on barbecued beans. No wrapped dishes of it for the long ride home. No scrawled recipe to cherish.

So, we were determined to recreate the recipe. We found giant limas at the local store. Back in the dark corner in a dusty plastic bag. We soaked and soaked, but no amount of ministering to them turned them into the plump, melt in your mouth limas we craved. Finally, after several years of searching, I finally ran across these limas on Amazon. And they are perfect. Creamy. Hold their shape, but are tender when cooked. Delectable flavor. Eureka!

So, every holiday dinner, we tweak a recipe we developed. A bit more tomato sauce here. A splash more cider vinegar there. Brown sugar, spices, a dollop of love. Our recipe keeps getting better every year. Another year to ring in the holidays by clanging the cast iron lid on our cast iron pot and yell "get outta the way! I gotta get this thing in the oven!"

So, here we are again! Thanksgiving is next week and I am ordering my Lima beans for the holidays! These are the best limas. Whether barbecued, or splashed with cream or swimming in butter. We haven't found a Lima bean as tasty in all the years we searched for them. We love them and they help us to remember a special person whom we loved fiercely!
