Horn & Hardart-Style Philly Baked Beans
1 pound Great Northern or navy beans, soaked in water in a large pot overnight
Nonstick cooking spray or vegetable oil
1 1/2 C. tomato juice
1 C. water
2/3 C. molasses
1/2 C. diced onion
4 T. ketchup
4 T. brown sugar
4 slices bacon, diced and fried until crisp
2 T. cider vinegar
1 T. dry mustard
1/2 t. cayenne pepper
Drain the beans, then cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until beans are almost tender, 45
to 60 minutes.
Drain beans and transfer them to an oven-safe casserole dish or baking pot
coated with cooking spray or brushed with oil.
Combine tomato juice, water, molasses, onion, ketchup, brown sugar, bacon,
vinegar, dry mustard and cayenne; stir into beans.
Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 250�F. oven until very tender, about 4 hours.
(Start checking the beans occasionally after 2 hours, adding water as needed to
prevent scorching.)
