Add the partially cooked beans.

Put cut up salt pork or bacon on top.

Combine brown sugar, molasses, mustard and salt with 1½ cups boiling water.

Pour over the beans.

Add more boiling water, if needed, to come just to the top of the beans.

Add more boiling water as needed during baking time (after 2 & 4 hours add until its to the top of beans again)

Bake, covered, at 300℉ (150℃) for 6 hours, or until beans are tender.
