Plan ahead! This recipe requires overnight time
2
Put the beans and water in a 2-1/2 quart Dutch oven or a large saucepan. Soak for 8 hours, or overnight.
3
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bay leaf, garlic, and bacon and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the beans until tender, 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Drain the beans, reserving the cooking liquid. Discard the bay leaf.
4
Stir in the maple syrup, ketchup, barbecue sauce, mustard, and salt and pepper. Return the beans to the Dutch oven, or transfer to a 2-1/2 quart bean pot.
5
When ready to cook, start the Traeger grill on Smoke with the lid open until the fire is established (4 to 5 minutes). Set the temperature to 300F and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 15 minutes.
