Good looking plate of beans zwiller!

I could probably work that recipe for the slow cooker thanks for sharing

Is the cornbread a must for guys with this and/or do you guys serve side with it? Seems like I need a palette cleaner of sorts. I am pounding my fist on my first few bites but seems like I hit a wall or something and not want more yet I know I could eat more. I think it's because it's so bold/rich/both and I need to switch gears. Noticed this the last time when I made cajun stuff. Just curious.

It's a super rich meal for sure. For us cornbread is a must. Sometimes we have turnip greens on the side

That looks mighty darn good. I will have to give it a try.
Thank you for sharing.

Thanks. Famous Dave's to the rescue! Normally I can finish the plate but gave up about halfway.

Yeah I have learned to limit my sides as mostly get filled up from whatever main course I have. Tough being two old people lol

That was a long read!
Somehow, I missed this post last summer. I love beans and rice.

OK now stay with me on this next round.

All starts with the red beans. If you aren't using Camellia then you aren't making Cajun red beans. And that's a factView attachment 636631

Just got back from the store. Whole bottom shelf is various Camellia beansView attachment 636725

Blue Runner Red Beans sells a 'Creole Cream Style New Orleans Spicy' that is just like the plate posted by Jake in this thread....

For canned beans, this is the Louisiana standard...and is made in my home town.

I hope this doesn't offend, but chances are your beloved dried or canned beans today come from my home area. Minnesota, North Dakota, and Manitoba grow over 50% of the dry red beans for the North American market. Our area is also the major source for pinto, navy, great northern, and black beans.

None taken. I don't know where Camilia sources their beans from.

They source from all over the us. What makes them special is their strict selection process. Only the best make it

Probably the cultivar of red bean too....
