Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine molasses, ketchup, and mustard. Add beans, and season with salt and pepper; mix to combine.
• Transfer to a 2- to 3-quart covered baking dish. Scatter onion over beans; then lay bacon slices on top, in a single layer, covering onion as completely as possible.
• Cover dish and bake, 30 minutes. Uncover; cook until bacon is crispy, 30 to 40 minutes more. Let sit 5 minutes; mix well before serving.

Steps:

• Remove stones from beans, rinsing well in a colander.
• Place beans in a large pan, adding a teaspoon of salt along with enough water to cover contents by 3 inches.
• Over high heat, bring beans to a rolling boil for 2 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, cover pan and let stand for 1 hour.
• Uncover pan, breing contents back to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender (1 to 1 1/2 hours).

• One one side of pot, push whole onion down into beans.
• Cut several gashes in the salt pork and push it down into beans on other side of the pot.
• Cover pot, place in oven and set heat to 350 degrees.
• Bake until beans are bubbling (about 1 hour).
• Reduce heat to 250 degrees and continue to bake for 6 to 8 hours more, stirring every hour or so.
• As beans cook, they will absorb liquid.
• Continue cooking, adding reserved liquid (or water) a little at a time to keep beans moist, but not soupy.
• Baked beans are done when thick and fragrant, with a deep, brownish red color.
• When serving, remove and discard onion, while keeping in sliced salt pork if desired.

Steps:

• Place beans in a large bowl and cover with water by at least 3 inches.
• Soak overnight.
• Drain.
• In a large heavy saucepan, combine beans and bay leaves.
• Add enough water to cover by 3 inches.
• Bring to a boil and continue boiling gently for about 45 minutes or until beans are tender.
• Drain beans reserving 4 cups of the cooking liquid.
• Preheat oven to 350^F.
• In a large oven proof pot with a lid, combine the onion, salt pork, ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, dry mustard and pepper.
• Stir in the beans and 3 cups of the cooking liquid.
• Cover the pot tightly with foil and then the lid.
• Bake until the beans are very tender and the liquid has been absorbed, about 2+1/2 hours.
• Add more liquid as necessary.
• Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275°F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and onion, and sauté them until they soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the baked beans, molasses, brown sugar, Neely's Barbecue Sauce and Neely's Barbecue Seasoning to the skillet, and stir all the ingredients to combine. Transfer the bean mixture to a 9 × 13-inch baking pan. Add the meat, and stir well to combine. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake for 45 minutes. Allow the beans to cool slightly, then serve warm, as a side dish.

Steps:

• Soak beans overnight in cold water. Simmer the beans in the same water until tender, approximately 1 to 2 hours. Drain and reserve the liquid.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Arrange the beans in a 2 quart bean pot or casserole dish by placing a portion of the beans in the bottom of dish, and layering them with bacon and onion.
• In a saucepan, combine molasses, salt, pepper, dry mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil and pour over beans. Pour in just enough of the reserved bean water to cover the beans. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake for 3 to 4 hours in the preheated oven, until beans are tender. Remove the lid about halfway through cooking, and add more liquid if necessary to prevent the beans from getting too dry.

Steps:

• In 5-quart Dutch oven, heat 8 cups water and beans to boiling over medium-high heat. Boil uncovered 2 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand 1 hour; drain.
