Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 175°C.
  2. In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crispy, about 7 minutes. Then transfer to paper towels to drain. Add the onion to the pot and sauté until soft, 8-10 minutes.

  3. Add the beans, molasses, tomato sauce, brown sugar, mustard, garlic powder, 1/4 cup water, and salt and black pepper to taste, and stir well. Cook over low heat for about a minute. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the beans are very tender and dark in color and the sauce has thickened, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  4. Transfer the beans to a serving platter and sprinkle with candied jalapeño and bacon bits.
  5. Candied Jalapeño:

    Preheat oven to 350°F (160°C) and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Slice the jalapeños into thin rings and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.

    In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, garlic, mustard, cayenne pepper, and salt. Brush the jalapeños with olive oil. Sprinkle the sugar and spice mixture on top. Bake until crisp, 20-25 minutes. Set aside to cool.
