How to make New Orleans Red Beans and rice

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Hello everyone! This is a remake of my 2013 video for Red beans and rice. New and improved! Hope you all enjoy! If you have any questions or comments regarding this video please leave them below. Thanks!

[@blessedandpushingIN2024]

Charlie Andrews LAWD knows I was just talking about making some red beans and rice, AND HERE YOU COME LOL.. RIGHT ON TIME BABE' 💕💕💕

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Yeah! My last video was 23 minutes long and there's a lot I wanted to improve on. Thanks so much!

[@JustNyla]

Charlie Andrews so if Im using smoked turkey necks etc is that added on the part when u added the seared pork meat? Or when should that be added?

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Turkey necks in Red beans??? Now sure how that would work but since it is smoked it will add some flavor to the beans. Most of the smoked meat is already fully cooked so all you have to do is add it into your beans as soon as they start simmering. No need to sear etc unless the meat was raw.

[@perryholmes206]

Awesome Charlie, i just gotta see if’n i can find pickled pork here in H-Town

[@heruammen8522]

Mr. Andrews, As my Mom would have said "I'm happy for you to see me." I want to thank you for keeping the tradition of New Orleans Creole Cooking relevant. My Mom (RIP) was a Creole Chef born and raised in New Orleans (7th Street, then Upperline and Freret) and I consider myself a student of that tradition. Your recipe matched my moms almost to the letter (like you, I can't give away all of my mother's secrets...lol). Like everything else, America co-opted what was created by us and has given it the nomenclature of "cajun." Fortunately, we can now reclaim what was ours and show the entire world the traditions of New Orleans style, African American cooking from New Orleans. Thank you sir!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Hello Heru! You're welcome not a problem. Oh okay cool. Your mom lived in the same ward as me. Wow that is amazing. I didn't know I had a person whose recipe matched perfectly with my recipe. Seems like your mother and I have a few things in common. The same ward, the same recipe and from the same city. Awesome! I appreciate the compliments! Thanks!

[@bunnyman6321]

RIP to your Mom

[@dona62851]

Absolutely!! Creole is NOT Cajun!! Creole has finesse, delicate undertones and layers of flavor and color. Thanks!

This IS authentic 🙌🏼 I made this for my husband who is a N.O. native and got his seal of approval. I lived there for 13 years myself. We moved to NC after Katrina and I’ve always continued to make Louisiana/Cajun/Creole food that we loved. Thank you SO much Charlie! You helped me take my recipe that I made (very close to yours) over the top. I will use your rendition every time now. Many Blessings Note: You cannot rush when cooking this, gumbo, etc so be patient. It’s worth it!

[@immortalrising6109]

How hard is it to find the pickled meat in NC? I'm in Charlotte can't seem to locate any

[@sunkissed38queen89]

@@immortalrising6109 he said you can use smoked meat also to make this recipe. Like smoked ham hocks or smokes turkey tails.

[@eamonia]

Man Charlie, you need to start your videos out with a disclaimer saying that you do not plan on harming yourself, you don't hang out in dark back alleys at night, have no mysterious or untreated illnesses or enemies and like being alive because with all these secrets you're giving away, you might just have some people after you. 😆 For real though, your recipes will be mainstays in countless families for generations to come because you work so hard to share all your tricks, recipes and techniques with the whole world. I put a few in my Grandmas cookbook that's been handed down through the family because during the holidays we just _have_ to have your gumbo and so many other recipes. I even printed out a little picture of you and put it on every page with one of your contributions to my family and all their families and friends. God bless you, you sweet wonderful man. ✊❤️

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

I just may have to start thar disclaimer. lol I wouldn't be surprised at all. lol ha ha I'm happy to hear that you enjoy my recipes and that you've added some of the recipes to your grandma's cookbook. Thanks so much for sharing!!

[@jsmooth6311]

Now this real authentic Red beans n rice... I seen alot of watered down recipes... But this looks official my brother😎

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Thanks Jay! I took my time explaining everything the best way I could especially with the pickle meat.

[@namienamie2167]

In Jamaica, this stews peas and the recipe varies according to families. And it can be made with pigtail, salt beef, chicken feet or whatever people have available. Rastafarians have a no meat version they call Ital stew. Stew peas is also made in other parts of the Caribbean.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Okay cool. Not sure if stew peas is the same as Red beans.

[@yolwinchester]

Ok Mr Charlie, I think boiling the pickled meat before it's put in the beans is cleaner and better, boiling takes the fumes that's on the out side of the meat off. It will not change the taste of the pickle or salt meat. But that's just me. I'm 59 years old I watch my mother cook in the kitchen. After about 10 minutes you will see the fumes rise off the pickle or salt meat. I do like watching you cook!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Yes that will work. Cool that's a good thing! Happy to hear that you enjoy watching my videos. Thanks!

Charlie, it's time for my granddaughter to learn to cook. So we sat down and watched this video and she made beans and rice by herself! I simply watched. It was delicious! She was so proud! To anyone with children or grandchildren: Charlie Andrews is the perfect tutor for cooking. He shows the importance of sanitation by washing his hands and food and keeping a clean kitchen. He lays out all the ingredients before hand. He shows the procedure step by step and explains each step. Above all, Charlie is so relaxed and happy when he cooks. Charlie, you show us that cooking from scratch is fun! Kiarah and I will be watching a lot more of your videos. Thank you for teaching her how to cook! 😄

I made YOUR red beans & rice Saturday afternoon. In place of the pickled pork, I used smoked turkey and one ham hock. I served it with cornbread (Zataran's honey cornbread) along with maple syrup or Steen's cane syrup for those who wanted a little extra sweetness. One a scale of one to ten red beans, this was about as close to ten red beans as any rb&rice recipe I have ever made!

Boy lemme tell you my grandpa Dee is from New Orleans and ain’t nobody’s red beans and rice has come close to tasting like the way we make it. This just made me happy, because of how close it was. I’m so happy I found your channel

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Hey there! Happy to hear that the Red beans and rice was a success and that this recipe came close to tasting like the way your Grandpa made it. Thanks for leaving feedback! :)

[@alexstickney156]

This one made me hungry...and I just ate!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

That is a good thing! lol

[@beverlydouglas7019]

I have learned some good tips with your recipe. I never heard of pickle meat before, but my Mom always used salted pork in her bean's. The butter I must try next time. Thanks Charlie!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

I'm happy to hear that you've learned somethings. You're welcome, not a problem!

[@CunoWiederhold]

I love Jazmin rice, but never thought of using it for "red beans and rice" recipe.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Jasmine rice is the best!

[@mamatemari6061]

Charlie Andrews that’s my favorite rice

[@CHRISTChrysalisInManhaim]

I love Jasmine, but with most other foods Basmati is a fave

[@CunoWiederhold]

@@CHRISTChrysalisInManhaim I'm old school, so for me...Basmati for Indian food (curries, etc.), Jasmine for Asian and Thai & good old long grain for everything else like Cajun/Creole...But I'm definitely going to try the other rice types with Cajun.

[@flowerchild777]

Nice! I can hardly wait to try this!😍 I've tried a few times to make red beans from dried but the flavor was not quite there.😞 Thank you so much

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Awesome! Let me know how it turns out! You're welcome!

[@hhyyuu667]

Pickled pork is one thing I miss about living in Louisiana! But my local grocery PROMISED that they were gonna get me some for the fall over here in alabama lol still my favorite red beans recipe. From one New Orleans native to another, great job dude!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Yes, it is really a one of a kind item. lol I hope your local grocery store can get you some pickled pork. I appreciate the compliments my fellow New Orleans native. Thank you!

[@JustNyla]

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

You're welcome, not a problem!

[@USNVA11]

LOL... I think I lost count of the table smacks ! 🤣 Red beans and rice is great comfort food. I make it quite often with my InstantPot electric pressure cooker. My recipe is pretty close to yours but I also add a bit of cumin and cayenne pepper. I also use Virginia cured ham chunks along with smoked sausage. However a body makes it, it’s great eating and a go to pleaser for a hungry family ! Oh, don’t forget that fabulous skillet cornbread on the side ! 😋

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Yes I agree with you. Cumin? I've never heard anyone add that to their Red beans. My grandmother used the ham chunks which I did not like lol Thanks!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

I will try the cumin! I'm sure that it will give it a little extra flavor!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Thanks Johnny I try my best man!

[@luckytxn]

I have been making red beans for decades and love this dish. I make it almost the same way but never tried it with pickled pork but ham hocks and a ham bone and smoked sausage. I have actually found they sell pickled pork here in Houston area at heb so in future plan on trying it. Now the only thing I never tried before was finishing it off with butter. I am making this dish tomorrow and will try the butter at end. It is one of my fave meals to make and eat.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Awesome that is good to hear!!! Let me know how it turns out. Thanks so much! :)

[@NickCal304]
