Cowboy Baked Beans!

These baked beans are perfect for your holiday cookouts this summer.  They are a little hardier than just ordinary baked beans because they have ground beef in them.  They are usually one of the first dishes emptied at any potluck or picnic.  They have a good blend of sweet and spice to them and are a great side for grilled meats...hamburgers, hot dogs, even steaks and grilled chicken.

Brown ground beef, diced onion, and diced green pepper in pan.  Drain any excess grease.  Sprinkle with pepper, garlic powder, and salt. Add chili powder, ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and Coke.

Mix together and pour into a casserole dish sprayed with cooking spray. Top with bacon.  Place in a preheated 350 degree oven and cook for 45 minutes.
