Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven or other oven-safe, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat for 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the ground beef, bacon, onion, and garlic, and cook, stirring constantly, until the ground meat is no longer pink. Remove the majority of the liquid from the pan.

Step 4

Stir the remaining ingredients into the meat mixture. Cover the Dutch oven and bake the beans for 45 minutes.
