Beans, Baked

Procedure: Soak and boil beans and prepare molasses sauce.

Molasses Sauce - Mix 4 cups water or cooking liquid from beans, 3 tablespoons dark molasses, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon powered dry mustard. Heat to a boiling.

Place seven 3/4-inch pieces of pork, ham, or bacon in an earthenware crock, a large casserole, or a pan. Add beans and enough molasses sauce to cover beans. Cover and bake 4 to 5 hours at 350° F, 177° C. Add water as needed-about every hour. Fill hot jars, leaving 1-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles, adjust lids and process.
