Baked Beans
Ingredients:
1 cup (8 oz) dried navy beans (the ones @ Horrocks)
4-6 ounces bacon, cut into large chunks
1 onion, roughly chopped
6 TBSP molasses (90 g)
2.5 tsp. salt
Scant 1/2 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. mustard (10 g)
1 cup ketchup (272 g)
3/4 cup brown sugar (160 g)
6 TBSP white distilled vinegar (and then adjust to taste)
Directions:
- Soak beans in salt water brine (1 1/2 tablespoons of kosher salt dissolved in 2 quarts of water) overnight. They can brine for up to 24 hours.
- Drain. Rinse beans under cold water & place in Instant Pot. Cover beans with 2 inches of cold water. Add some onion, garlic cloves, a bay leaf, & 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Pressure cook for 13 minutes (it takes ~35 minutes to build up pressure and cook), turn off “keep warm” setting and let Instant Pot naturally release for 25 minutes.
- Drain beans, reserving their liquid.
- Arrange the beans in a bean pot or casserole by placing a portion of the beans in the bottom of the dish and layering them with bacon and onion.
- In a saucepan, combine molasses, salt, pepper, mustard, vinegar and brown sugar. Bring mixture to a boil and then pour over the beans. Pour in just a tad of the reserved liquid, ~1/2 cup.
- Bake uncovered at 300 for 2.5 - 3 hours, until the top starts getting the carmelized skin.
