NO MEAT (BUT I ADDED HAM) BAKED BEANS

NO MEAT (BUT I ADDED HAM) BAKED BEANS
We liked this but it was watery.  Next time only add 1/4 cup and watch to see if it needs more.  I added a ham hock and some Thanksgiving ham.

1# dried navy beans
6 cups water
1 small onion, chopped
3/4 cup ketchup
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup water (or less - see note) 
1 tsp dry mustard
2 T dark molasses
1 tsp salt
ham hock or diced cooked ham, optional 

Soak beans overnight in water in a large soup kettle.  Cook beans in water until soft about 1 1/2 hours. Drain, discarding bean water.

Mix together all ingredients in slow cooker. Mix well.  Cover and cook on low 10-12 hours.
