Green Beans & Caramelized Onions

From your great-Grandma S's neighbor H. who is in her 90s!

4 strips bacon
2 large yellow onions, cut lengthwise into 1/2" thick slices
2# fresh green beans, trimmed
3 T. cider vinegar
4 1/2 tsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper

In large skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Blot with paper towels, crumble and set aside. Reserve 2 T. drippings.
In drippings, cook onions over medium heat until tender and golden brown. Place beans in large saucepan; cover with water and boil for 8-10 minutes until tender. Drain.

Stir the vinegar and sugar into onions. Add the beans. Cook uncovered 1 minute.

Add bacon, salt, and pepper. Toss gently.
