In a saucepan, combine molasses, salt, pepper, dry mustard, ketchup, worchestershire sauce, dry chili flakes (*optional) and brown sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, then pour over the beans. Add just enough of the reserved bean water to cover the beans. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
Bake for 3 to 4 hours in the preheated oven, until beans are tender. Remove the lid about halfway through cooking, and add more liquid if necessary to prevent the beans from getting too dry.
