MATT'S DUTCH OVEN BAKED BEANS

53 oz can pork and beans

2-15oz cans black beans

1 pound bacon

1 sweet bell pepper

1 small onion

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 cup maple pancake syrup

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

2 teaspoons liquid smoke

1 tablespoon mustard

   Brown bacon until crunchy in Dutch Oven and drain about half of the grease off. Crush/break bacon into small pieces. Chop onion and pepper into desired size of pieces and add to bacon on medium heat. Cook just long enough to soften the onions and peppers slightly. Add the rest of the ingredients and heat until it just begins to simmer (keeping it stirred). Allow it to cook on low to medium heat, just barely simmering, for about 15 minutes. Let stand and cool to desired serving temperature. Enjoy!
