Time 13h

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 lbs dried navy beans, rinsed and soaked overnight in water to cover
1 lb smoked bacon, coarsely chopped
2 large onions, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup molasses
1 tablespoon ground pepper
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup black coffee
1 cup chicken stock

Steps:

Rinse soaked beans and place in large pan with enough fresh water to cover.
Cook, covered, over medium heat for one hour or until tender.
While beans cook, sauté bacon in a skillet until lightly browned, remove and set aside, then lightly sauté the chopped onions in the remaining bacon fat until translucent. Remove onions and set aside.
In a saucepan, combine maple syrup, molasses, pepper, mustard, ketchup, tomato paste, brown sugar, Tabasco, the orange juice, the pineapple juice, the coffee and the stock. Cook over medium heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Combine beans, sauce, onions and bacon in a crock pot. There should be enough liquid to cover the beans generously. If not, add some more stock, or combination of juices.
Cook at low for 12 hours, at high for 8.
Taste for seasoning near the end of the cooking time and add salt if needed.
