We love pork and beans, especially with hot dogs, hamburgers or really any kind of barbeque
- 2 pounds dried pinto or navy beans (I recommend navy beans)
- 1 large onion (about 1-pound), peeled, halved and sliced
- 4 canned plum tomatoes, seeded and crushed (I used fresh roma tomatoes, sliced in half)
- 2 dried bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon dry mustard

- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for serving
