Boston Baked Beans in Bean Pot

Recipe By : Durgin-Park Restaurant, Boston, MA
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Casseroles Vegetables

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 2 1/2-quart bean pot or covered casserole
1 pound beans*
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 pound salt pork
1/2 medium onion -- peeled and uncut
4 tablespoons sugar
1/3 cup molasses
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

*Use California pea beans, York State beans or small white beans.

Soak beans overnight. In the morning, preheat oven to 325° F. Place the
baking soda in a Dutch oven and fill half way with water. Bring to a boil
and add the beans. Boil for 10 minutes. Drain beans in a colander and run
cold water through them. Set aside.

Dice the salt pork (available in the bacon section of the grocery store)
into 1-inch squares. Put half of the salt pork on the bottom of the bean
pot, along with the onion. Put beans in the pot. Put the remaining salt
pork on top of the beans.

Mix the sugar, molasses, mustard, salt and pepper with 3 cups of hot water
and pour over the beans. Cover pot with lid and place the pot into the
preheated oven. Bake for 6 hours. Check pot periodically to check the
amount of liquid. Add water to the beans slowly as needed to keep them
moist; do not flood them. Remove the pot from the oven and serve. Makes
about 7 cups.

NOTE: The Durgin-Park, a Boston restaurant whose origins date back to the
American Revolution, is famous for its Boston baked beans, baked Indian
pudding and apple pan dowdy. Durgin-Park cook Tommy Ryan has prepared this
recipe at the restaurant for the past 37 years.

Durgin-Park serves 1,000 diners on an average Saturday evening. The
waitresses have a reputation for their long memories: the second time you
come in, you get the same thing you ordered the first time--unless you speak
fast.
