Old Fashioned Beans by The Thomas Ranch

Old-Fashioned Beans

Ingredients:
1 lb. pea or navy beans, water, 2 tsp. dry mustard, dash of pepper, 1 tbs. salt, 3 onions, chopped, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup molasses, 2 tbsp. sweet pickle juice, 1/4-lb. salt pork

Directions:
Wash and clean the beans. Cover with water and soak overnight. Drain. Add 2 cups water, mustard, pepper, salt, onions, brown sugar, molasses, pickle juice. Boil, covered, for about 1-1/2 hours. Beans should be wrinkled.
Heat oven to 250. Cut salt pork into 1/2” cubes. Place in 2-quart bean pot. Cover with hot beans and their liquid. Sprinkle with pepper. Bake 8 hrs. covered, until very tender. When beans are baking for 6 hrs. add about 3/4 cup water or just enough to cover. Uncover the pot the last 1/2 hour.

Old-fashioned flavor and worth the wait!
