MY OWN CROCK POT NEW ENGLAND BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Soak beans over night or do a quick soak method. If soaking, drain soaking water, replace with new and boil the beans 30 minutes. I know what crock pots say about beans and sorry companies, this works!
• Place onions and salt pork in bottom of pot.
• Pour in beans drained of water.
• Mix the next 7 ingredients in a saucepan and bring just to the boil stirring occasionally. Pour over beans in pot.
• Add water to cover beans and cook on low 10-12 hours (or more) topping with water if necessary.
• Stir every 2 hours and cook with lid off for final 2 hours to thicken. I usually find that I need to stop adding water at this point and stir occasionally as beans will "appear" dried out on top; this is how they should look. Just stir.
• These should be saucy rather than liquidy or dry. a thick sauce. Unfortunately this is not a crock pot recipe which can be left unattended for more than 2-3 hours.
• Eating the onions is one of the best parts! I used to only use 1 until my mother began screaming give me an onion!
• These freeze very well. Freeze in plastic containers or bags and thaw at room temperature. Re-heat adding a bit of water if necessary as they *can* thicken upon freezing.

MOM'S NEW ENGLAND BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Soak beans in a pan of water overnight then drain before cooking.
• Boil the soaked beans until the skins crack when you blow on them. (With a spoon, lift some out of the boiling water and blow on them. If the skins crackle, they are done.) This step is important because the beans don't soften up any more while baking, and you don't want them to be too hard.
• Drain the beans and place them in your bean pot (any ceramic piece will do as long as it has a lid).
• Add uncooked bacon and chopped onion.
• In a sauce pan, bring the rest of the ingredients to a boil.
• Once everything is melted and combined, pour the mixture over the beans in the pot.
• Make sure the liquid covers the beans. If not, then add more water.
• Bake in covered pot at 250 degrees for about 4 hours. Check periodically to make sure the liquid level does not get too low. They will thicken as they bake, but you should have a little juice so they are not too dry.
• The beans will be dark brown, and thick when they are done.
