Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 pounds bacon, diced
  • 1 can (28 ounces) pork baked beans
  • 1 can (15 ounces) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 ounces) lima beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon mustard

Directions

  1. 1

    Assemble all your ingredients.

  2. 2

    Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and diced bacon. Cook, stirring frequently, until the beef is browned, approximately 7 to 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Move the cooked beef and bacon mixture to a slow cooker. Mix in the pork baked beans, kidney beans, lima beans, chopped onions, ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard.
