Crockpot Baked Beans: the best!

1lb ground beef (or turkey)
2 onions, sliced into rings

1 - 19oz can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 - 19oz can chickpeans, rinsed and drained
2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tbsp white vinegar
1 tbsp dijon mustard

In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, cook bacon for 5 minutes until slightly cooked, not crisp
Remove from pan and place on paper towels
Cool and Coarsely chop (or chop before you cook it...much easier!)
Drain the fat from the skillet
Add ground beef and onions to skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes, breaking up the meat, until browned and onions are translucent
With a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to the crockpot
Add beans in sauce, kidney beans, chickpeas, ketchup, sugars, vinegar and mustard, stir to combine
Cover and cook on low 5-7 hours (or 3-4 hours on high) until bubbly

Sooo good!
