This is the way I make baked beans it's a very simple recipe.

1 lbs. navy beans or dry beans of your choice
1 48 oz can of tomato juice
1/2 cooking molasses
2 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 lbs of ham (preferably nicely smoked)
1/4 un-sweetened apple juice.

Soak the beans overnight in cold water. After soaking the beans discard that water. Combine all the ingredients into baking pan cover and slow cook three to four hours or until beans are tender. If you need to add more liquid during baking add more tomato juice.

These measurement are approximate because I've never used a recipe to make them. It's one of those things I picked up from watching my mother when I was a kid. She never used a recipe to cook anything.
