Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb dried navy beans
1 tsp salt
8 slice bacon
1 sweet onion minced
1 red pepper finely chopped
2 clove garlic minced
1 can(s) tomato sauce
1/3 c ketchup
1/3 c bbq sauce
1 Tbsp prepared mustard
1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 c molasses
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a Dutch Oven or large stockpot add the beans, salt and enough water to cover two inches over the top of the beans. Bring to a boil; cooking for 3 minutes. Cover and let sit 1-2 hours or until soft. Reserve a couple cups of the water and then drain the beans.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place bacon in single layer on baking sheet. Cook for 6 minutes. Reserve bacon grease. Chop bacon into bite size pieces.
  • 3. Add the bacon grease to a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and red bell pepper cooking until soft; 5-7 minutes. Reduce the heat and add the garlic cooking for 1 minute; stirring constantly.
  • 4. In the serving dish combine the cooked drained beans, cooked onion/pepper mixture, tomato sauce, ketchup, barbecue sauce, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, molasses, smoked paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle the chopped bacon over the top. Bake covered with foil in a preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and cook an additional 10-15 minutes. Check on them several times and if they get too thick used the liquid that you reserved from cooking the beans to thin them out.
