Baked Beans (Clean the beans and soak)

Clean the beans and soak in cold water over night. Drain off this water and add enough fresh water to cover them. Add a half pound of salt pork to each quart of beans (measured before soaking); add salt, pepper and molasses or sugar to suit taste. Boil for ten or fifteen minutes; place kettle in cooker for six or eight hours. Remove to earthen dish and bake for two hours or until beans are well browned.
