1 lg Onion, chopped
Salt pork, cut into small
cubes
%%%%% SAUCE %%%%%
5 cup Water
1 cn Tomato paste
6 tablespoon Molasses
3 tablespoon Maple syrup
1/3 cup Brown sugar
1 teaspoon Black pepper
1 teaspoon Salt
One half teaspoon Ground ginger
2 teaspoon Dry mustard
One half teaspoon Paprika
1 pn Of cayenne

Small white beans, soaked baking soda

Bring beans to boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Turn off heat. Add 2 tsp baking
soda to water and allow to soak 1012 hours. Drain water off and rinse a
few times. Bring beans to a boil and boil another 2 minutes. Drain and
rinse again. Place beans in large bowl. Add chopped onions and mix well.
Mix all ingredients for sauce together and bring to boil. Meanwhile, place
once piece of salt pork on bottom of pint jar. Fill with bean/onion mixture
and place another piece of salt pork on top. Arrange all your jars of beans
on counter and then fill with hot sauce. Seal with two piece lids and
arrange in pressure canner. Process at 11 pounds pressure for 70 minutes.
Allow canner to cool on it's own. When pressure is completely down, remove
canner lid. Place jars on towel and adjust lids. Allow to cool on their
own, adjust lids again. Label and store in cool, dark storage.

**My notes** This is the most simplest method for making beans that I have
ever done. No baking with the oven going all day long, and no having to
sand blast the baked black parts off of the bean crock. 8}
