Recipe ingredients and directions:
2 lbs dried beans
1/2 lb salt pork
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
3 Tbsp brown sugar
1/3 cup molasses
1/3 cup maple syrup
2 tsp dry mustard
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 medium onion, quartered (optional)
Pick over beans for miscellaneous objects, then soak them overnight
in cold water. The next day, parboil them (JB: in fresh water)
until their skins crack when blown upon. Put the onion in the
bottom of a bean pot. Add the beans. Cut through the salt pork
rind to the depth of one inch, and place it on top of the beans.
Mix the remaining ingredients with 1 pint of boiling water, and
pour this over the beans and salt pork. Add more boiling water if
necessary to cover the contents. Bake 6 (plus) hours at 300F,
adding more water as necessary as the beans cook.
