Ingredients

¼ pound peppered bacon, chopped
1 medium onion, sliced
4 cups fresh green beans, trimmed

Place bacon in a large pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add onion; cook until bacon just starts to brown a bit, 4 to 5 minutes. Add green beans and stir until coated in bacon grease. Add sugar, salt, seasoned salt, and just enough water to cover. Bring to a boil.
