here you go

2 lbs of dry beans,  Great Northern or Navy  sort thru and pick out the broken , discolored, and any stones or clumps of dirt   rinse and then cover with about twice as much water (I add a little soda)  soak over night.

Drain , rinse again, and then boil until just tender (again I add a little soda)   keep an eye on this as it loves to boil over , skim the foam as needed.    Drain and rinse again.

While beans are boiling  make the "sauce"

1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup molassas
1/2 tsp of black pepper ( I use more)
1 large onion diced
(I also add a couple squirts of mustard what ever you have)

mix all together   you can add a little water to any containers of the molasses or ketchup and swish and add back to the sauce

add beans to mixture in large roaster  add your left over ham bone and what ever bits you trimmed off.    Add enough water to cover the beans

Bake at 350* for 2 to 3 hours or until beans are done.  Stir occasionally   When almost done pull out the ham bone and remove any bits still attached,  can cut up if you wish.   Bone is now DONE

you may have to add water occassionally to keep beans from getting to dry

if you like your beans a little darker remover cover and bake for a bit. 

REALLY good with fresh homemade bread or  a take and bake chibattia

FREEZES WELL

can also be done in a large crock pot 

Thank you!

you are more then welcome you can always add extra ham if you want and if a little dry just add a little water . They do thicken up after cooling the first time

what is the whitish one  beside her  and then the polish  sort of butterscotch colored. 

That white is a columbian project. He is trying to columbian color on Orpington. I think he mixed in Delaware. I can send you one . I think I have three roosters that color. The other one is a buff laced polish.
