I ran across this recipe on allrecipes.com. The ease caught my eye, and I figured it would be easily tweaked to my standards. To control the sweeteners, I make my own BBQ sauce using half stevia, half maple syrup. I use either “5 Minute Barbeque Sauce,” from Hallie @ Daily Bites, or one from Ali @ Whole Life Nutrition, “Chipotle BBQ Sauce.” Depending on our mood, I serve it atop either my Corn Free Millet Cornbread, or my biscuits. Either way, this is quick and easy throw together meal for the family!!
- 8 oz bacon, diced (I prefer Trader Joe’s Applewood Smoke Nitrate free)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cans pinto beans, or about 3 cups
- 1 cup favorite barbeque sauce (I shared two links to recipes I use above)
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the bacon.
- Set pieces on some paper towels and discard all but 1 tablespoon of the remaining fat.
- Saute the onions until soft, a couple of minutes.
- Crumble the hamburger in, stirring to break it up.
- When the hamburger is no longer pink, stir in the beans, barbeque sauce, and bacon.
- Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Serve atop your favorite biscuits or cornbread!

When her third child was born with severe food allergies, Tessa took to the kitchen to figure out how to feed her family well. Always up for a culinary challenge, their journey has taken many twists and turns! Lots of Paleo, and lots of top 8 free. Good food for families, that's what she's about!
Looks delicious! I look forward to trying it soon!
oh yum! that looks delicious! hearty and fabulous! thanks for sharing! have a great weekend!
This looks like my kind of kid-friendly comfort food. You could also serve it atop rice or potato nachos/fried potatoes. My kids will thank you as soon as I put it on our menu.
Mmmmm….love one skillet meals! I have a hard core love of Bob’s Red Mill GF Corn Bread Mix and this would be perfect over it. I have a bag of pinto beans that I wasn’t sure what to do with and now I’ve found it!
Definitely going to try it. It looks so yummy.
Sounds and looks yummy Tessa. I can think of lots of things to put this on and thanks for the bbq sauce links. Always nice to have on hand.
Looks good!
Tessa, this looks absolutely divine! I love quick and easy meals, and this one falls into that category. For my family, I believe they would enjoy it on top of rice or mashed potatoes with a side of cornbread☺ Thank you for sharing this week in our hop.
this looks scrumptious! thanks for linking with KiK
