📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the navy beans to a large container and cover them with water by about 4 inches. Set aside overnight.
dried navy beans1 pound
2
Preheat the oven to 325°.
3
Drain the beans, rinse them, and set them aside.
4
In a medium to large size cassoulet pot or Dutch oven, add in the bacon and cook over medium heat until crispy, about ⏱️ 6-8 minutes.
5
Set the crispy bacon lardons aside and then add in the onions. Turn the heat down to low and cook until well browned about ⏱️ 30-40 minutes. Stir occasionally.
6
Add in the garlic and peppers and cook for ⏱️ 6-8 minutes on low to medium heat. Stir occasionally.
7
Add in the remaining ingredients, rinsed beans, tomato puree, mustard, tomato paste, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, 3/4 of the cooked bacon, hot sauce, beef stock, salt, and pepper, and mix until completely combined. Just to be sure the beans cook in an appropriate amount of time, bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Cover with a lid and bake in the oven on a middle rack at 325° for 3 to 3 ½ hours or until the beans are tender and the mixture is thick. You may need to add ½ to 1 cup more of beef stock at the 90-minute cooking mark. All dry beans seem to cook differently, so don’t be surprised if this takes up to ⏱️ 3 hours more of cooking. If you find this is the case, add 1/2 to 1 cup of beef stock every ⏱️ 90 minutes. The beans should be tender but also hold shape.

Garnish with additional crispy bacon and optional chopped parsley or sliced chives.
