Add onions and peppers to fry pan drippings and saute until tender - about 5 minutes.  Add 4 cans pork and beans, 3/4 cup barbeque sauce, 1/2 cup brown sugar. 1/4 cup white vinegar and 2 Tbs. Dijon mustard (or 2 tsp. dry mustard may be substituted)

Pour into a greased 9x13 pan and top with bacon slices.  Bake at 325 degrees until bubbly and sauce is consistency of pancake syrup - about 2 hours.
