Thanks, and Semper Fi.

CROCK POT BAKED BEANS
1.5 lbs Navy beans (3 cups)typical bag of dry beans
1 med onion chopped
1 or 2 cloves garlic (or some garlic powder not salt) optional
1 cup ketchup
1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp
dry mustard (if you do not have, use BROWN prepared not that yellow stuff)
2 tbls dark molasses
1 tsp salt (it calls for 1 tbls but you can always add more, not take it out!)
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 lb salt pork (I used bacon, partially cooked in microwave cut up in pieces)
1/4 cup any kind of BBQ sauce (optional)
If you want zing add some red pepper I also add a few drops of liquid smoke.
Soak the beans overnight, navy beans are real tough so I not only soak them, I boil them of a few minutes and let sit for an hour.
Drain the beans and dump all in crock pot. Add about a cup of water to just cover the beans. Stir well. Cook until beans are tender.
They will still be firmer than the canned mush.
Keep an eye on it so they do not dry out and burn, you may have to add a little more water.
Enjoy
