- Dice the onion. Mince the garlic.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F degrees. Preheat a dutch oven or large high sided skillet over high heat.
- Add the ground beef, bacon, and onion. Break up the ground beef using a spatula. Add in the garlic, and steak seasoning to the ground beef and then mix everything together and spread out into a single layer. Cook until the beef is cooked through.
- While the beef is cooking, you can drain the beans, as you do not need the sauce.
- When the beef is cooked, add the brown sugar, ketchup, and mustard. Mix to combine. Then add the drained beans and a dash of cayenne pepper (to taste). Stir everything together, cover and place in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
- After the 40 minutes, serve and enjoy!
