Best in the West Baked Beans

I think I clipped this recipe out of the newspaper years ago. It is always a huge hit at picnics, barbecues and get togethers. It's a nice change from the more traditional baked beans. I can't even begin to guess how many times I have handed out the recipe.

• Ready In: 1 hr 30 mins
• Serves: 20

Ingredients

• 1  lb  extra lean ground beef
• 1  lb bacon, chopped
• 1  onion, chopped
• 1⁄2 cup ketchup
• 1⁄2 cup barbecue sauce
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 4  tablespoons yellow mustard
• 4  tablespoons molasses
• 1  teaspoon chili powder
• 3⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 (16 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
• 2 (16 ounce) cans  pork and beans
• 2 (16 ounce) cans lima beans, drained

Directions

1. Brown beef, bacon and onion in large skillet. Drain.
2. Combine all ingredients except beans, mix well.
3. Add beans and stir gently.
4. Bake one hour in a 325 to 350 oven (or until hot a bubbly).
5. This recipe can easily be cut in half since it makes a rather large batch. I only use half the bacon. If you would like, you could add some more beef if cutting back on the bacon.
