Ingredients

3 cups dried white pea beans or 3 cups dried navy beans, cleaned
1 large onion
1/2 lb salt pork
1/2 cup sugar, a little under
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons molasses
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt, if salt pork has mostly meat in it or 1 tablespoon salt, if salt pork has mostly fat in it

Steps:

Clean beans of pebbles and rocks.
Put cleaned beans in pot. Set aside.
Mix sugars, molasses, and mustard. Add salt and pepper. Mix into beans.
Add enough water to cover beans.
Place salt pork down into beans. You can opt to cut it up, or leave it whole, like my gram used to do.
You can also put the onions in whole, or opt to chop them up. She used to keep them whole, so us kids could fight over them lol.
Bake in bean pot, at 200 degrees, all night or 8 hours If not done, finish in the morning.
When beans are ready to be eaten, turn oven up to 450 until beans start to boil, then turn back to 200, until ready to serve.
Note: If beans look like they are drying out, just add water as you are cooking.

These beans are a great side dish for any meal. I especially love them with grilled chicken or fish.

I've tried many baked bean recipes, but this one is by far the best. The beans are always cooked perfectly and the sauce is so flavorful.

I followed the recipe exactly and the beans turned out perfect. They were a little sweet for my taste, but I added a little extra salt and pepper and they were perfect.
