Description

These slow cooker (or crockpot) canned green beans are such an easy side dish to prepare. After cooking the bacon, just dump all the ingredients into the slow cooker and let it work its magic. The result? Tender green beans infused with savory bacon, coated in a perfectly buttery sauce. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 Pound Bacon (6-7 slices) - cut into bits
  • 100 Ounces of Canned Green Beans
  • 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 4 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1/2 Onion - finely diced
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, place the bacon that has been sliced into bits. Cook until finished. Remove cooked bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to soak up any excess grease.
  2. In a slow cooker, add cooked bacon bits, green beans, brown sugar, butter, finely diced onion, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cover and turn on low to cook for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
  4. Enjoy when ready.
