• Boil the beans and onions on medium heat for 1.5 or 2 hours with the pot half covered.
• (The beans are cooked when the skins begin to split and you can squish one with your tongue on the roof of your mouth.).
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Drain the bean/onion mixture and return to the cast iron pot with a fresh 5 cups of water.
• Place a whole peeled medium onion in the center of the pot.
• Mix the additional 7 ingredients (vinegar, Splenda, mustard, molasses, ketchup, salt and pepper) and stir into the pot.
• Stir in the chopped turkey bacon.
