Directions:
Soak beans five hours or overnight. Drain, rinse, drain. In five quart pot cover beans and pork with 3 inches of water over beans. Boil until tender ( about 45 minutes). If need to, add more boiling water. Skim off the scum the pork makes as it cooks then add the next six ingredients. When beans are cooked, add salt and lots of pepper. The beans are ready to eat. But to make them into baked beans do the following:
Grease bottom and sides of baking pan. With slotted spoon, ladle beans into prepared baking pan. Save the "liquor". Stir into beans the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Arrange pork slices on top. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. If beans seem to be drying out, add some " liquor" and stir in from the bottom up.
