Steps:

1. In a large frying pan brown beef and bacon. Remove from pan and drain most of the drippings. Leave enough to cook onions just until tender. Mix meats and onions. Pour meat mixture into a large casserole dish or 9 by 13 inch pan. Drain and rinse all canned beans, except the can of pork and beans. Leave that sauce in. Add to meat mixture and stir together. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl mix all remaining ingredients well. Stir into meat and bean mixture which you set aside. Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Remove cover and bake for 10 minutes more. The sauce will be thin when first removed from oven. Allow to sit, uncovered for 10 minutes before serving and sauce will thicken up a bit.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound(s) ground beef (i usually use chuck)
1 medium sweet onion
1/3 cup(s) ketchup
2 teaspoon(s) prepared yellow mustard
2/3 cup(s) dark brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon(s) ground mustard
1/16 teaspoon(s) liquid smoke flavoring (about 6 drops)
1 pinch(es) salt
3 can(s) pork and beans, juice drained from top

Steps:

In a large skillet, over medium/medium-high heat, combine and cook the ground beef and onions until no pink remains and onions are translucent.
Drain thoroughly (I use a wire mesh strainer set over a heat resistant bowl) and set aside.
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
In a 2 quart baking dish, mix together the ketchup, yellow mustard, dark brown sugar, ground mustard, liquid smoke and salt, thoroughly.
Add the drained beef and onions; mix well.
Fold the partially drained beans into the mixture.
Place the dish on a baking sheet; bake at 350ºF for 45 minutes. (Total baking time is 1 1/2 hrs.)
After baking for the first 45 minutes, cover with lid or foil; bake, covered, another 45 minutes, until bubbly.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving (because it's HOT as lava!) Cover and refrigerate leftovers.
