Method
Prepare the Beans
- Drain and rinse the soaked navy beans. Place them in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 45 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
Cook the Bacon
- In the same pot, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, leaving the drippings in the pot.
Sauté Vegetables
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot with the bacon drippings. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Combine Ingredients
- Add the cooked beans, bacon, chicken broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard powder, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
Bake the Beans
- Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and cover with foil. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until bubbly.
