Yum!
So you cooked the rice in with the red beans? Don't see that often down here....

 

[mr_whipple]

Considering my heritage as a white trash nobody from the 'burbs of Detroit...... that looks right tasty. I'm all ears on how to make it any way that tastes the best!

 

[jcam222]

Looks great!! I bet the flavors are fantastic.

 

[kelbro]

Cornbread on the side?

My SIL him being PR he makes lots of PR red beans and rice. Sometimes I have to pass as I can only eat RBnR so many times.

Sadly it's not homemade I will do that next. This was made with Zatarain's red beans and rice mix. I like their spanish rice and I needed a quick meal to take to work. I quartered some Hillshire farms smoked beef sausage and browned em in my wok then simmered in the beans and rice mix for 25 mins.. It was 100% f*** tasty lol.

I do think some kidney beans in the slow cooker with some browned sausage and then keeping the rice separate would be good. I' am open to slow cooker ideas on this theme. I do have a big cookbook I will look thru for the homemade version.

ps

no sadly no cornbread /sob

One caution on cooking dry red beans in a slow cooker...

"Insufficient cooking, such as in a slow cooker at 80 °C/ 176 °F, however, can increase this danger and raise the available hau up to fivefold.[6]"

I recommend starting the beans in the pot you soak the beans in. Bring up to a boil for ~10 minutes, then lower to simmer for 20-30 minutes, then transfer to the crock pot. You can also change the water prior to transfer to crock pot....that will help too.

Read the post from Indaswamp about crock pot red beans. He's spot on, you don't want to get sick. Red beans only take 3 hours to cook using dry small red beans. Boil for 30 minutes, add Cajun trinity, slow boil another hr or so then add sausage. They should be done in 2.5 to 3.5 hours depending on how high your boil is.
I put bay leaves and garlic in the beans when I start the cook. Add slap ya mama seasoning after the beans are tender

Red beans and Rice is one of my all time favorites, nowadays I use the instant pot and make sure I use Camilla Kidney beans. We are lucky here in Georgia we can get some decent Andoulie.

That looks like a perfect meal right now. I’m jealous!

I can vouch for Jake on this. If you have the time, I highly recommend this...

Cajun Red Beans And Rice.....The Real Deal

Howdy Americans and non Americans and those of you who forgot what being an American was about. Something different around here for our Independence Day meal. No coincidence that this is a traditional Monday meal in Louisiana...... laundry day. Made up some red beans and rice today. Been...

I know that there are other good recipes on here for red beans and rice and I'm no expert, but I've made this one and it's a keeper...

I never got the dry bean guys but now do. When rehydrating dry beans they pick up flavor from whatever you add to the pot. Game changer. Bonus is cheaper too. While I am at it I recall you use minute rice. Fresh rice is INSANELY better than minute. Ran some beans and rice last night and the family freaked out just how good the rice was. PLAIN RICE! Did it all in an Instapot. LOVE that thing. Scored mine new in box ON FB marketplace for $30. Remember everything you run in IP cooks WAY faster. IE rice was 3m and beans 45m and no soak. All this being said, yours looks quite tasty still!

Corn bread in the oven. Be right over....

[Coach JoeQB]

The instant pot is a total game changer. I don't soak the beans overnight. The other thing is I sear the Andoulie and then remove from the cook so they don't get washed out. I cook at HP for 50 minutes and it never fails. After a natural release I return the Andoulie and mash some of the beans to thicken.
