List of Ingredients
1 -2 1/2-quart bean pot or covered casserole
1 pound beans*
1/2 pound salt pork
1/2 medium onion,chopped
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
* I use Great Northern beans but you can use navy Beans or Pinto Beans
Soak beans overnight. In the morning, preheat oven to 325F.
Dice the salt pork (available in the bacon section of the grocery
store) into 1-inch squares. Put half of the salt pork on the bottom
of the bean pot along with the onion. Put beans in the pot. Put the
remaining salt pork on top of the beans. Mix the sugar, molasses,
ketchup, mustard, salt and pepper with 3 cups of hot water and pour
over the beans. Cover pot with lid and place the pot into the
preheated oven. Bake for 6 hours. Check pot periodically to check
the amount of liquid. Add water to the beans slowly as needed to keep
them moist; don't flood them. Remove the pot from the oven and serve.
Makes about 7 cups.
