SWEET AND SMOKY BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Add the beans, salt, and water to the Instant Pot. Lock on the lid, close the steam valve (if applicable to your pot) and set to the bean setting, normal, for 60 minutes.
• In the meantime, pan fry the bacon or ham until cooked to your preference. Drain and allow to cool. Crumble or slice the bacon into 1 inch pieces. Ham should be cut into a 1/2 inch dice.
• Once done, release the steam. Once steam is released, remove the lid and stir the beans. At this point, you can drain the water for a dryer version of baked beans, or you can leave the water in. (I left the water in the pot.)
• Add in the onion, molasses, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, dry mustard, chili powder, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to combine.
• Lock on the lid, close the valve if applicable, and set to bean, normal, for 30 minutes.
• Release the steam and remove the lid once it's safe to do so. Turn off your Instant Pot. Stir the beans. You will notice that there is a lot of liquid. Don't worry; the liquid will be absorbed.
• If you are adding bacon or ham, do so now and stir into the beans. Allow the beans to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
