Considering it’s beans, they didn’t have to do a small laundry job later in the day?

Learned how to make it from a college friend in college from Mobile. We would get sausage from the Ag school. Great eating!

They're great in a crock pot with short ribs simmered with whole jalapenos and sticky rice.

We enjoyed some wonderful red beans and rice on Monday January 9 of this year. They were made all the better by Bama’s crushing defeat of the Bengal Tigers.

What is your blog address? I will do a summary and link to the recipe on my site Area Local News. We are in Houston, but will be covering the Texas city markets and we can’t ignore our neighbors to the East! le se bon ton roulet!

My wife was born in Atlanta and lived in 'Bama all her life. All I hear about is how red beans and rice were such a part of her childhood living on the backwaters of the Chattahoochee down here. Damnedest thing is,
I'm the one who likes gumbo and andouille sausage more..........
Go figure.

What’s a few typos for an Aubie? We live in Arizona, so we had to make due with Hillshire Farms or some such. But they were good, and we did not have a lick of leftovers. Good stuff! You have a wonderful night and a great Sunday! RTR

Probably the strongest, most physically impressive man I ever met worked for a moving company that I used once in Corpus Christi. This young black man didn’t speak much, didn’t have to. When his arms flexed they were as thick as my leg.
I asked him what he ate to stay in such good shape. In a quiet N’Oleans drawl he said, “Just red beans and rice.”

You would be amazed at how many dishes/dates/days come about this way. I've made a study of it.
Pork jowl and black-eyed peas on Jan. 1st is an example.
There's generally a reason for what folks cook and eat and do, if you can ferret it out.

Not just a New Orleans tradition, they did it, and still do in Mobile, AL. which used to be the Capitol of Louisiana at one time.

I put Pinto beans in a crock pot.
When they are well cooked I add the tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, cooked beef and spices for a nice chile....yum :-)
