Crock-Pot Baked Beans Recipe

10 strips bacon
2 tablespoons bacon grease
4 medium onions, chopped
1 (30-ounce) can pork and beans, undrained
2 (16-ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
1 (16-ounce) can lima beans, drained
1 (16-ounce) can cannelloni beans, drained
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

Fry the bacon until crisp; reserve 2 tablespoons of grease. Crumble the bacon, and set aside. Heat the grease, and sauté the onions until clear. Drain the excess fat. Stir the onions together with the pork and beans, kidney beans, lima beans, cannelloni beans, ketchup, crumbled bacon, and brown sugar in a large Crock-Pot. Cook on the low setting for 2 hours.

Yield: 10 to 12 servings
