Classic Baked Beans

For about a decade now I've been making barbecue: the real-deal, low-and-slow, smoked over wood sort of stuff. Every pit master needs a few recipes for sauce and sides. Baked beans is a classic.

• 1 large onion, fine dice
• 1 ham steak (1 lb), fine dice
• 29 oz. tomato sauce
• 1 c brown sugar
• 1/2 c molasses
• 1/2 c honey
• 1 tbsp liquid smoke
• 4 lbs canned beans (black, pink, navy, etc.)
