Ingredients

16 ounces (2 cups) dry navy beans

2 quarts cold water

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup molasses

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon dry mustard

4 ounces salt pork

1 medium onion, chopped

Directions

1) Rinse beans; add to water in saucepan.

Bring to boiling and simmer 2 minutes; remove from heat. Cover; let stand 1 hour. (Or add beans to cold water; soak overnight.)

2) Add salt to beans and water; cover and simmer till beans are tender, about 1 hour. Drain, reserving liquid.

3) Measure 2 cups liquid, adding water if needed; mix with molasses, brown sugar, and mustard.

4) Cut salt pork in half; score one half. Grind or thinly slice remainder. In 2-quart bean pot or casserole (I prefer the bean pot), 5) combine beans, onion and ground salt pork. Pour molasses mixture over. Top with scored pork.

6) Cover; bake in 300 oven for 5 to 7 hours. Add more liquid if needed.

Makes 8 servings.
