Molasses Baked Beans

Recipes :

2 cups Dried White Navy Beans

1/2 lb Bacon

1 medium Onion

1/2 cup Molasses

1/4 cup Brown Sugar

2 tablespoons Cider Vinegar

2 tablespoons Mustard

Ground Mustard

To taste Pepper

Instructions :

  • Place the dried beans into a Dutch oven with 6 cups (1.5 L) of water. Soak overnight.
  • Drain and pour beans back into the pot with enough water to cover the beans by a couple of inches, cook for 30 minutes until they are tender but still firm. Drain beans, making sure to reserve cooking liquid, set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 °F (160 °C). While the oven is preheating, cook pork over medium-high heat in the Dutch Oven until fat is rendered and pork is beginning to brown, then add the onion cooking until tender.
  • Add the beans back to the pot, along with molasses, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ground mustard, salt and pepper and 3 cups (750 mL) of reserved bean water.
  • Bake uncovered for 3 to 5 hours until the beans are tender, and the sauce has thickened, and the edges of the pot get sticky.
  • (Note: if beans get dry, add another cup of water.)
