There are many ways to cook Boston style baked beans, but this one is my favorite. Rich flavor, heavy on the molasses and just hearty...good stuff!
Ingredients:
1 lb navy beans
1 lg onion - quartered and separated
1/2 lb thick cut bacon (or salt pork)- cut to 1 inch pieces
1/2 cup molasses
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tsp mustard powder
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 cloves garlic - smashed and chopped
1/4 cup ketchup
Directions:
1. Soak Beans over night in 6 - 8 cups water
2. Boil 2 mins -Strain & Reserve 6 cups liquid
3. Mix all ingredients with the water, except the bacon and onions
4. In the dutch oven, layer: bacon/beans/onion/bacon/beans
5. Pour the sauce over the beans. The liquid should just about cover them
6. Preheat oven to 300
7. While the oven is heating, being the beans to a boil on the stove top
8. Cover & bake in the oven for 6-8 hours, depending on how tender you like them
