For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with a plant-based alternative and omit the bacon. Consider adding diced bell peppers for extra flavor and color. Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference for sweetness. A touch of molasses can add depth to the flavor profile. If you prefer a smokier flavor, add a dash of liquid smoke to the bean mixture before baking. These beans taste even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
