1/3 cup Blackstrap molasses
1 tablespoon dry mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds Italian sweet sausage
1/2 pound chunk salt pork
2 cloves garlic, finely minced

Add about 1 cup of reserved bean cooking liquid to the baking pan, cover the top with strips of bacon and bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the liquid is almost entirely absorbed. (Add more liquid if it evaporates too quickly.)

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful ingredients for the best results. Look for tender pork shoulder or loin, and select a variety of beans that you enjoy. You can use canned or dried beans, but if using dried beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the pork: Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
  • Use a variety of beans: Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all popular choices for pork and beans salad. You can also use a mix of different beans for a more complex flavor.
  • Add plenty of vegetables: Vegetables add color, flavor, and nutrition to the salad. Try adding chopped onion, celery, bell pepper, or corn.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: A simple vinaigrette or a creamy dressing made with mayonnaise or Greek yogurt are both good choices. You can also use a bottled dressing, but be sure to choose one that you like the taste of.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the salad will be more refreshing.
