- Place the beans in large bowl. Cover with warm water and let soak overnight at room temperature. Add water, as needed, so that the beans are always well covered. Rinse and drain.

- In a large ovenproof pan, brown the lamb shanks in the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside on a plate.
- In the same pan, brown the onions for about 2 minutes. Add oil, as needed. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Return the shanks to the pan and add the beans, tomatoes, broth, beer, molasses, bacon, and bay leaf. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Bring to boil and bake, covered, for about 2 hours.
