1 lb dried navy beans
1 lb sliced bacon, cut up
2 large onions, chopped (2 cups)
1 cup catsup
1 cup molasses
3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
2 teaspoons dried oregano, crushed (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

(Or place beans and water in Dutch oven. Cover and let soak in a cool place for 6 to 8 hours or overnight.) Drain and rinse beans.
  • In the Dutch oven cook bacon and onions until bacon is crisp. Drain off fat. Add the beans and 6 cups fresh water to Dutch oven. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours or until beans are tender, stirring occasionally.
