How to Make Real Old Fashion Oven Baked Beans
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, cook the salt pork (or bacon) over medium heat until rendered and crispy. Remove the pork, reserving the rendered fat in the pot.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- Stir in the brown sugar, molasses, dry mustard, black pepper, and salt. Cook for 1 minute more.
- Add the rinsed and drained beans, tomato sauce, beef broth (or water), and optional ketchup to the pot. Stir to combine.
- Return the cooked salt pork (or bacon) to the pot.
- Cover the pot and bake in the preheated oven for 1800 minutes (30 hours). Stir occasionally, especially during the first few hours. Add more liquid if it becomes too dry.
- After 30 hours, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
