    I purchased the original recipe along with a bean pot at the restaurant in 1964. This is it, except it substitutes bacon for the original salt pork, diced 1”x 1/2”, which makes a world of difference. These beans are so good, it prompted me to buy the pot & recipe for my mom, as I was on a high school church fellowship trip to Boston. I have made it many many times since then (I’m 76). I have crockpot cooked it and pressure cooked it, but it never comes out quite like slow baking. It does not foam! Read the recipe and rinse off the baking soda parboil solution!

    The original recipe uses 1 lb. very lean salt pork cut into 3/4 inch cubes vice bacon. Watch the beans closely when bringing to a boil with the baking soda as it will quickly boil over. Expect allot of foam.

    Mom used 1 lb. of beans and cut back on the Sugar, salt, and pepper. I eliminate the salt and use half the sugar.
