Chef's Notes
Pay absolute attention to the rendering phase of your bacon. If you rush the heat, you end up with rubbery ribbons instead of the magnificent, shatteringly crisp bacon crumbles that give this dish its legendary texture.
Pro Tip
When chopping your large sweet onion, aim for uniform, fine pieces so they practically melt into the beans during the long bake, leaving behind incredible sweetness without large, distracting crunches.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware, amateur alchemists, for the most tragic crime you can commit against these majestic beans is miscalculating the brown sugar avalanche; dumping two packed cups without tasting your chili sauce will transform your comforting side dish into a cloying, molten caramel trap capable of gluing your guests' jaws shut for a fortnight.

The Culinary Science
