Ingredients

  • 12 ounces — bacon

  • 1 pound — ground beef

  • 2 large — onions, chopped

  • 4 (15 ounce) cans — pork and beans

  • 1 (18 ounce) bottle — honey barbecue sauce

  • 1 (15 ounce) can — kidney beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 (15 ounce) can — lima beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 (15 ounce) can — black beans, rinsed and drained

  • ½ cup — packed brown sugar

  • 3 tablespoons — apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon — liquid smoke flavoring (Optional)

  • 1 teaspoon — salt

  • ½ teaspoon — ground black pepper

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Cool, then crumble.
  • Meanwhile, add ground beef and onions to a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until beef is no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Transfer beef and onions to a large Dutch oven. Stir in crumbled bacon, pork and beans, barbecue sauce, kidney beans, lima beans, black beans, brown sugar, cider vinegar, liquid smoke, salt, and black pepper.
  • Bake, covered, in the preheated oven until bubbling, about 1 hour.
