Ingredients

Scale

Beans:

  • 4 slices reduced-sodium bacon* ((cut into small pieces))
  • 8 ounces lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion ((diced))
  • 1 15 ounce can unsalted cannellini beans ((do not drain))
  • 1 15 ounce can unsalted black beans ((do not drain))
  • 1 15 ounce can unsalted kidney beans ((do not drain))

Sauce:

  • 1 cup unsalted ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 5 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ¾ teaspoon black pepper ((or to taste))
  • ¾ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¾ teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Cook the bacon, ground beef, and onion in a skillet over medium heat until browned. If you are planning on baking the beans in the skillet (like me!), make sure you choose a large, oven-safe skillet. Drain off excess fat.
  3. Stir together the beef, bacon, and onion with the remaining ingredients (including the sauce ingredients). If you are baking the beans in the skillet, just stir everything together in the skillet. Otherwise, transfer to a 9”x13” baking dish and bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes.
