Brown ground beef, add onions and cook until onions are clear.  Add bacon, mustard, vinegar, ketchup and brown sugar.  Add beans.  Cook in crockpot on high 3 hours or in oven at 350 degrees for 40 min.

*To make this more healthy you could use turkey burger.  I used 7% fat ground beef and there wasn't any fat that cooked out.  Also turkey bacon or 1/2 the bacon, I used low salt bacon.  You can use any kind of beans you want to use, you don't have to use bushes, you could just use pork-n-beans and add a bit more ketchup, mustard, vinegar and sugar.
