Zack's Slow Cooker Baked Beans and Sausage

Quick, easy recipe we make on a regular basis. My 16yr old son is learning to cook and the slow cooker has been great for him to learn and put together his own ideas. (No Peppers or Onions is his one basic rule!)

• Ready In: 4 hrs 10 mins
• Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

• 6  ounces  center-cut bacon
• 28  ounces  baked beans (whatever flavor you like we use Original)
• 14  ounces smoked sausage (beef)
• 11  ounces hickory flavored barbecue sauce
• 1⁄4 cup  a- 1  steak sauce (Bold & Spicy)
• 1⁄4 cup brown sugar

Directions

1. Fry bacon and drain on paper towels. While frying bacon slice smoked sausage on the bias and place all remaining ingredients (Beans, BBQ Sauce, A-1 and brown sugar) in crock pot or slow cooker. Using a small amount of the bacon grease brown the smoked sausage. Crumble bacon and place in cooker. Stir in smoked sausage. Cover and cook on low 4hrs.
2. *to save time I sometimes use the precooked bacon bits, bacon is a must for my family in this dish.
