Zubereitung von Margaret Lefever's Wonderful Baked Beans
- Rinse 1 pound of dried navy beans under cold water.
- Place beans in a large pot and cover with about 6 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and let the beans soak for 2 hours.
- After soaking, drain the beans and return them to the pot. Add fresh water to cover (about 6 cups) and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Add more water if necessary during cooking.
- While the beans cook, prepare the sauce: In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup molasses, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons mustard, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish. Place 6 slices of bacon on the bottom of the dish.
- Spread the cooked beans evenly over the bacon.
- Pour the sauce over the beans, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Cover the casserole dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 2 hours.
- Remove the cover and bake for another 1 hour, or until the sauce has thickened and the beans are bubbly. If the beans appear dry, add 2-3 tablespoons of ketchup and 1-2 tablespoons of water to the top.
- Let the baked beans cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
