1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Cut the bacon into short pieces and cook in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel, leaving the fat in the pan.

2. Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the drained mushrooms and cook for 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. In a large bowl, combine the baked beans with pork, drained kidney beans, and drained butter beans. Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce until evenly mixed.

4. Stir the onion and mushroom mixture and half of the cooked bacon into the bean mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Spread the mixture in a 9x13 inch baking dish and scatter the remaining bacon over the top.

6. Bake uncovered for 90 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until bubbling and thickened. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
