Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound bacon (cut into 1-inch pieces)
  • 1 large yellow onion (chopped)
  • 2 28-oz cans pork and beans (not drained)
  • 1 16-oz can butter beans (not drained)
  • 1 16-oz can kidney beans (not drained)
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Instruction

  • In a large heavy-bottomed pan set over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking apart the meat as it cooks. Using a slotted spoon, remove the beef from the pan and drain the excess fat.
  • Add the bacon to the pan and cook until brown and almost crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon from the pan and drain the excess drippings, leaving about one tablespoon of drippings in the pan.
  • Add the onion to the bacon drippings in the pan and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add back the beef and the bacon. Add the pork and beans, butter beans, and kidney beans (all undrained). Add in brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, and vinegar. Stir to combine and continue cooking until heated through.
  • Refrigerate leftovers. Reheat leftovers on the stove top or in the microwave.
