I could not find a baked beans recipe that everyone liked. So I started putting a few different ones together and I came up with this.
Ingredients
- navy beans: 3 cups (dried)
- water, to cover:
- ½ cups ketchup: 1 piece
- fully cooked ham: 0.5 pound
- ½ cups water: 1 piece
- brown sugar: 0.5 cup
- molasses: 0.25 cup
- ½ tablespoons onion powder: 1 piece
- dry mustard: 1 Tbsp
- salt: 1 Tbsp
- Worcestershire sauce: 1 Tbsp
- ground black pepper: 0.25 tsp

Cook beans over medium heat until tender, about 1 hour. Drain beans, reserving the water for later use.
-
Place beans, ketchup, ham, 1 1/2 cup water, brown sugar, molasses, onion powder, mustard, salt, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and 1 cup reserved bean water in a slow cooker. Add more bean water as needed if beans get too dry.
