Bacon and Molasses Beans

    4 thick-cut bacon slices, thinly sliced crosswise
    2 medium onions, finely chopped
    1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    4 (15 oz. cans) Great Northern beans, rinsed, drained
    1/3 cup mild-flavored (light) molasses
    1/4 cup ketchup
    1/4 cup purchased barbecue sauce
    1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  Cook bacon in heavy large pot over medium heat until fat is rendered
 and bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer
 bacon to paper towels; drain. Discard all but 2 tablespoons drippings
 in pot. Add onions, bell pepper and garlic to pot; saute until
 vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in bacon, beans and
 remaining ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered
 until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
 Season with salt and pepper.
