Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a skillet, brown the chopped onion with the bacon pieces until they are fragrant and the bacon is slightly crispy.

Remove from heat.

Transfer the onion and bacon mixture to a casserole dish.

Stir in the pork and beans until well combined.

Cover the bean mixture with the ketchup.

Season the pork chops with salt to taste.

In the same skillet used for the onion and bacon, slightly brown one side of the pork chops.

Place the partially browned pork chops on top of the bean mixture in the casserole dish, with the uncooked side facing up.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the pork chops are browned and cooked through.

Serve hot, spooning the flavorful bean mixture over the pork chops.
