Boston Baked Beans 🫘

Boston Baked Beans :beans:

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 4 hrs 10 mins
Total Time: 4 hrs 20 mins
Servings: 6

Ingredients:

2 cups dry navy beans, soaked overnight

½ pound uncooked bacon strips

1 medium onion, diced

½ cup ketchup

3 tablespoons molasses

¼ cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

2 teaspoons salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

¼ teaspoon dry mustard

Ingredients:

Transfer the soaked navy beans and soaking water to a saucepan.

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until nearly tender, approximately 1 to 2 hours. Drain and reserve the cooking liquid.

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Arrange 1/2 of the beans in the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Place 1/2 of the bacon strips over the beans and sprinkle 1/2 of the onions over top. Repeat layers once more.

Combine ketchup, molasses, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and dry mustard in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil.

Pour sauce over the beans. Pour in just enough reserved cooking liquid to cover the beans. Cover the casserole dish with a lid or aluminum foil.

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours. Remove the lid and continue to cook, checking every 1/2 hour or so and adding more cooking liquid if necessary to prevent the beans from getting too dry, until beans are soft and tender, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours more.

Serve hot and enjoy!
