I made this for a potluck. I started here and made my own adjustments.

• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 1 cup pre-soaked pinto beans
• 1 cup pre-soaked navy beans
• 1 green bell pepper chopped
• 1 can tomato sauce
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 Tbsp oregano
• 6 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
• 1 Tbsp dill
• 3/4 c molasses
• 2 Tbsp chili powder
• 1 Tbsp black pepper
• 1 tsp salt

Brown and drain the ground beef, cook and crumble the bacon. Throw everything in a big ol kettle and simmer for about 3 hours.

You could do this in a slow cooker too and set it on low for about 6 hours.
