Cowboy Beans

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 2 quart baking dish with cooking spray.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until partially done. Remove the bacon from the pan.
Pour some of the bacon fat out of the pan, leaving about 1 tablespoon of fat in the pan. Add the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking up the meat into fine crumbles with a spoon.

Add the onion to the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes or until translucent. Season the onions with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the beans, mustard, brown sugar, molasses, ketchup and apple cider vinegar to the pan. Stir until well combined.
Pour the bean mixture into the prepared dish. Layer the pieces of bacon all over the top.
Bake for 60-90 minutes or until bean mixture has thickened and bacon is browned and cooked through. Stir to combine.
Sprinkle with parsley, then serve immediately.
