Bebop Baked Beans

3 bacon strips, diced
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
2 cans (15 ounces each) pork and beans
1/3 cup hickory smoke-flavored barbecue sauce
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons prepared mustard

In a skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp; remove to paper towels. Drain, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings. Saute green pepper in drippings until tender. Drain one can of beans. In a bowl, combine both cans of beans, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, mustard and green pepper.

Transfer to a greased 1-qt. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly and heated through. Sprinkle with bacon. Makes 6 servings.
