Instructions

Rinse the dried beans in a colander, removing any damaged ones.
In your crockpot, mix the rinsed beans with water, diced onion, brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, tomato paste, yellow mustard, and pepper.
Cook on high for 9-10 hours (if beans are presoaked, use low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours).
During the last hour, add the cooked bacon and salt.

Notes

For extra flavor, use a mix of different beans if desired.
This dish can be made a day in advance and reheated for serving.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar based on your preference.
