This is the best baked beans with beef recipe I've ever known. Great with any main dish but especially with barbecue beef, pork, or chicken. The slow cooker does an amazing job with these beans.

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 large onion, finely chopped

  • 1 pound peppered bacon

  • 7 (28 ounce) cans baked beans (such as Bush's Original)
