- 4 strips thick bacon cut into 1/2 inch pieces

- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a heavy, medium size saucepan, cook the bacon over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, until it begins to brown and crisp.
- Add the onion, stir well and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is tender, 5 minutes more.
- Add the vinegar, tomato paste, and sugar free syrup.
- Add the beans and season with the dry mustard, salt and pepper.
- Stir to mix and reduce heat to low.
- Cover the pan and simmer the beans 30 to 40 minutes until the sauce is rich and thick and the beans have absorbed plenty of flavor.
I have a traditional bean pot - and will bake my bean mixture for the 30 to 40 minutes - nice presentation!
