7 pounds navy beans
1/3 cup baking soda
3/4 cup molasses
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
4 tablespoons salt
1 1/2 pound salt pork, diced
2 cups water
Soak the navy beans in a large pot overnight in enough water to cover completely.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine the beans, soaking water, and baking soda in a large pan or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 7 minutes.
Drain the beans well. Stir the molasses, sugar, dry mustard, paprika, salt, pork, and water into the beans. Place the pan in the oven and bake at 325 degrees F for 3 hours or until done.
Serve the baked beans warm or at room temperature.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
