Ingredients
| 4 | 14.5-ounce cans green beans, drained |
| 8 | slices bacon, chopped |
| 1/2 | cup onion, diced |
| 1 | large garlic clove, minced |
| 4 | tablespoons butter, cut into slivers |
| 2 | tablespoons packed brown sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon Worcestershire sauce |
| 1/2 | teaspoon salt (1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon) |
| 1/2 | teaspoon black pepper |
| 1/4 | teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
Instructions
Place green beans in 4- or 6-quart slow cooker (either grease slow cooker or use a cooking bag). Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet until crispy, adding onion when the bacon is almost fully cooked. Continue to cook until onion soaks bacon flavor and softens. Remove bacon and onion with a slotted spoon and add to slow cooker. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease into the slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients and stir. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring occasionally.
