2 -3 quarts water, to cook beans in |
1/4 lb diced bacon or 1/4 lb salt pork, diced |
1 onion, diced |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon allspice |
2 cups ketchup |
Directions:
1. Cook beans, by putting in heavy kettle, cover, with 3 inches of water. Do not cover pot with lid, boil for 3 minutes. NOW cover and remove from heat.
2. Let stand 1 hour. Cook bacon or salt pork add to beans. Do not disguard drippings.
3. Return to heat, remove lid and boil, reduce to simmer approximately 1-2 hours.Until tender, drain off water until just covered.
4. Take pan drippings and cook onion.
5. Add Allspice and Ketchup cook at a simmer 2 minutes.
