My mom has made these Slow Cooker Calico Beans with Bacon and Ground Beef Recipes for as long as I can remember. They are the perfect side dish for summer picnics and holiday meals. You won’t be able to stop going back to fill my plate with this delicious side.
Baked beans with beef and bacon
This side dish is so addictive. It’s the perfect side to take to any potluck. With ground beef cooked into the recipe, it’s hearty and filling too. I love sides like this one and ones like Cowboy Baked Beans and Peaches and Root Beer Baked Beans
Variation
These would make a great side of a camping trip, too. Just bake them in a foil-covered dish over indirect heat for about 1 hour.
These baked beans are so yummy. I can’t wait to share this old recipe with you. so you can enjoy this during your summer picnics this year.
