Baked Beans with Pork

A simple but tasty recipe for homemade baked beans and pork using bacon or salt pork.
Ingredients:
1 packet navy beans
2 Tb. molasses
2 tsp. salt
1/2 lb. bacon or salt pork.
Cooking Direction for Pork and Baked Beans:
Soak the beans overnight, parboil in soda water, and drain.
Add a sufficient amount of water to cover the beans well, cook until they break open, and then pour with the liquid into a baking dish.
If this liquid does not almost cover the beans, add more until it comes nearly to the top.
Add the molasses and salt, cut the salt pork into pieces, and distribute these well through the beans, placing a piece or two over the top.
Place the cover on the dish and bake in a slow oven for 4 or 5 hours.
Remove the cover occasionally, stir the beans carefully so as not to crush nor break them, and add enough water from time to time to keep the beans well moistened.
When done, the beans should be light brown in color, but the top should be well browned. Sometimes it will be found necessary to remove the cover in order to brown the beans sufficiently.
Serves 6 people.
