Instructions: (The long version from Edith Trouts, my Mom)

Soak 1 pound dried lima beans overnight in 1 1/2 quarts water. Do not drain water. Add 2 sliced onions, 1 1/2 lbs. diced salt pork or bacon and simmer until tender. Drain and reserve liquid. To 1 cup reserved liquid, add 1/4 cup dark molasses, 1/3 cup catsup, 1 teaspoon each salt and dried mustard and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Put beans in large casserole and pour mixture over beans. Sprinkle with brown sugar and baked in preheated 425 degree oven for 45 minutes.
