- 30 ounces pinto beans drained, rinsed
- 30 ounces dark red kidney beans drained, rinsed
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup yellow mustard
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
- 12 ounces bacon cooked, drained, and chopped
To a slow cooker, add the beans, ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, water, Worcestershire sauce, BBQ sauce and half the bacon.
Stir to combine.
Cook on low for 3 hours.
Remove lid and garnish with remaining bacon.
Serve warm!
- Serve warm by keeping it in the crock or slow cooker and giving it a stir occasionally.
- Looking for some extra pizazz? Try adding smoked paprika or sautéed medium onion for a little kick!
- Store in an airtight container for up to four days! Freshen it up with a dash of brown sugar and a bit of mustard.
- To save prep time, cook the bacon in advance so it’s ready to go!
- Want even more flavor? Add chili powder, maple syrup, and some Dijon mustard.
- Large slow cooker? Double the recipe!
- Add cooked ground beef or even hot dogs to make a complete meat and beans dinner.
- Cook these in a dutch oven on the stove top if you prefer this over slow cooking.
