Instructions

Rinse the dried beans in a colander and remove any damaged beans.
In the crockpot, combine the rinsed beans, water, diced onion, brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, tomato paste, yellow mustard, and pepper.
Cook on high for 9-10 hours. For presoaked beans, set to low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours.
In the final hour of cooking, stir in the cooked bacon and salt.

Notes

For quicker prep, consider soaking the beans overnight before cooking.
Substitute turkey bacon for a leaner option without sacrificing flavor.
