Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175° C). Add all of the sauce ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine, whisking if needed.
- Add pork and beans (undrained), above sauce, and diced onion and bell pepper. Using a large spoon or spatula stir to combine beans with sauce.
- Pour into a 9x13 casserole baking dish. Dice a 1/2 lb of bacon into small (bite-ish sized) pieces and toss onto the top of the beans. No need to make it pretty, but spread it out so that the bacon gets crispy.
- Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 - 2 hours until bubbly and bacon is crispy. If crisper bacon is desired, with beans on middle rack, broil for 2-3 minutes until desired crispness is reached. Allow to rest for 10 minutes and serve warm.
