Boston Baked Beans

Ingredients:

• 1 lb Dried Navy beans (soaked overnight)

• 1/2 lb Salt pork or thick-cut bacon, diced

• 1 Onion, diced

• 1/2 cup Molasses

• 1/2 cup Brown sugar

• 1 tbsp Dry mustard powder

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 4 cups Hot water (approx.)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).

2. Drain the soaked beans. Place them in a large pot with fresh water, bring to boil, and simmer 10 minutes. Drain again.

3. In a Dutch oven or bean pot, combine beans, onion, molasses, sugar, mustard, Worcestershire, and salt pork.

4. Pour in enough hot water to just cover the beans.

5. Cover with a lid or foil. Bake for 4 to 5 hours.

6. Check every hour; if beans look dry, add a little more hot water.

7. Remove lid for the last 30 minutes to thicken the sauce.
