Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and let cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium-high heat, stirring until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain. Crumble cooled bacon and set aside.

Step 4

Combine ground beef mixture, bacon, beans, BBQ sauce, white sugar, brown sugar, ketchup, molasses, mustard, salt, black pepper, and chili powder. Spoon into the prepared pan.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven, stirring once, until thickened and bubbly, about 1 hour.
