directions

  • Pick over the beans, rinse then soak them overnight in a big pot of water.
  • Drain then boil the beans with fresh water for 1 and 1/2 hours till soft, drain again.
  • Remove the skin from the salt pork, and cut into 1 inch cubes.
  • Cut the onion into quarters.
  • Arrange some of the salt pork and onion in bottom of bean pot.
  • Add beans, then another layer of onion and pork.
  • Add the molasses, pepper and mustard.
  • Top with fresh water to rim of pot.
  • Cover and bake at 350 F (176 C) for 2 and 1/2 hours.
  • Keep an eye on water levels, you may need to adjust by taking the lid off or adding more hot water.
  • Don't have a bean pot? Get one! I'm joking, you can also use a Dutch Oven, or do it on the stove-top. Stove-top is tricky, you need to stir a lot and frequently.
