How to Make Big Beefy Bacon Bean Burritos

Cook bacon until crisp. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
Sauté chopped onion in reserved bacon grease until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned.
Stir in chili sauce, barbecue sauce, liquid smoke, cocoa powder, chili powder, cumin, beans, and red pepper flakes.
Bring to a simmer, stirring gently, until heated through and flavors have melded (about 5 minutes).
Warm tortillas according to package directions.
Spoon a generous amount of the beef mixture onto each tortilla.
Fold tortillas to create burritos.
Sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and crushed tortilla chips.
Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-12 minutes, or broil for 2-3 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with sour cream or guacamole, if desired.
Serve immediately with Mexican rice and taco salad, if desired.
