Preparation

Step 1

Lightly spray an unheated medium skillet with no stick spray. Add the onions and bacon. Cook and stir over medium high heat until the onions are tender. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, stirring occasionally.

Transfer the onion mixture to a 4 - 6 qt crockpot. Stir in the beans in tomato sauce, baked beans, kidney beans, tomato sauce, brown sugar, liquid smoke, and maple flavoring. Cover and cook on the medium high setting for 4 - 6 hours (if necessary, adjust the heat setting so the beans slowly simmer during cooking.) Stir before serving.
