Good old pork and beans! A go to recipe for myself is an old 18th century pork and beans recipe. - .5lbs dried beans (navy, kidney, pinto) - .5lbs ham (hotdogs, pork) - one large onion (chopped) - 2 tbsp mustard powder - 1/2 cup maple syrup - 1/2 cup fancy molasses - 1 tsp pepper - salt as needed Soak some (.5 lbs) dried beans in water overnight. Add enough water to keep beans covered. Following day, drain beans and again add enough water to cover the beans by 1 inch. Boil for 1 hour adding water to keep beans covered if necessary. After an hour place in meat, chopped onion, mustard powder, maple syrup, molasses and pepper. Add more water to keep ingredients submerged. Simmer for 4 to 8 hours adding water as needed to keep from drying out. Salt to taste. Enjoy!
