Louisiana Style Red Beans and Rice Recipe |

[@NobodySpecial512]

I'm over 60 years old grew up in SE Texas and have made beans this way my whole life. I have a suggestion though. If you will wait to add your salt until the last 30 or 45 minutes they will naturally soften to where you get the texture you want just by cooking and maybe mashing a few against the side of the bowl just for fun. By adding salt at the beginning you increase the boiling point of the water, and you make it difficult for the beans to soften, which is why you are pulling some out and mashing them in a bowl. Having a lower boiling point causes the beans to roll, which helps soften them.

Excellent video. I like that you cook the sausage separately, and then add it back at the end. Lots of other cooks leave the sausage in the whole time. Since Andouille sausage usually comes fully cooked in the package, I don't want it sitting in the pot for a couple hours. I do put in a ham hock, just because the meat on the hock is the tastiest part of the pig. To mash up some beans to release starch, some people just smash them against the side of the pot. I like to use a potato masher right in the pan. I don't know if it is traditional, but most recipes call for a little cumin, which I personally like. Keep up the good work!

This video inspired me to take my first attempt at making red beans and rice. And I'm pleased to report that it was a big success! I didn't make any tweaks to the recipe, although I only had crushed bay leaves so I skipped that part. Took quite a bit longer than advertised to sufficiently thicken up at the end, but I'm glad I stuck with it. I think next time I'll probably try mashing a greater amount of the cooked beans as that should speed it up a bit. Anyway, thanks AB for the recipe and video.

Keep cooking good food bro.

[@S-T-DoubleO-P-I-D]

Almost. The Trinity MINUS Pepper Plus Carrot is Mirepoix. The French dont use green pepper at all in their veggie base for soups and stews. The legend is that when the French came to Louisiana, peppers were much abundant and easy to grow here, and in-turn it quickly became a replacement for carrots in their mirepoix. Hence, the trinity was born.

[@gulfsound5819]

@@RickyandGandi My grandmothers from NOLA would cook these on mondays because that’s when a lot of people would do their laundry. You’d hear the term “Wash Mondays” a lot when I was a kid growing up. So you could put the beans on cooking all day while you attend to laundry and other things. So yeah you can do this whenever you need to get a lot done and still want to get a hot meal on the table for everyone. If you want to make it even easier, buy some pre chopped trinity and use the brand Blue Runner beans (We always called them cheat beans). You would only need to cut the sausage up at that point and you can get a great tasting meal pretty quickly. Hope this helps.

That heads up with the bean mashing was a nice tip! I've only made this once before, but I'm still teaching myself Cajun & Creole cooking. I'm using a pork shank this time. About to cook this up tomorrow.

[@dr.denise-theresiliencedoc6701]

I’m mean delicious! Made it tonight with air fryer chicken, cornbread muffins!! Lawd!!! Outstanding recipe! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@Dsky40]

Loved it. When I tell you it was fire, it was FIRE! Water works just fine. I always used stock but water is perfect as it doesn’t over power the beans!!

Awwww looking good. A meal 4 this week. Tuh-day I made neckbones. Falling off the bone. I used the broth and made my rice ..

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

You showing out Sori! That sounds so good. Mmmmmm

[@DWOODPHD]

Yum!

[@tarapickedthepeppers1887]

So just had neck bone and rice? Like without cabbage, greens or Lima beans etc? Never heard of this. What state are you from?

[@wanda01141]

@@tarapickedthepeppers1887 I always only have nevkbones and rice. I'm from Baltimore

[@soriyazz]

@@wanda01141 😂😂Cooked down in onions over rice. Hell yea!. Sometimes cabbage or collard greens. Sometimes not.

[@dianabueno5540]

I just made this. I used 8 cloves of garlic, Jalapeno sausage, poblanos instead of green bell pepper, because that's what I had, also smoked bacon instead of ham, again that's what I had, also 8 shakes of Louisiana hot sauce. ThE BEST EVER! Thank you Chef for teaching me to cook this amazing recipe!

I love the smell of “The Trinity “cooking. It reminds me of the holidays, and makes me hungry❤️😂

[@cheesetoast8312]

Yup this is the way my big momma used to cook them. She from Rome ga and born in 1900 so she knew this style from age 10. Lordy them lookin good brotherman❤

Revisiting this video again, two months later because yum! My grandfather never wrote down his recipes and hated kids in the kitchen. 🤣 So by knowing my grandpa’s seasoning profile and learning your techniques I’ve been able to get it so close! I’m trying this with chicken stock this time to see if that’s the ticket. Thank you so much! You’re straight to the point, no flourishes, no fluff. Right down to business and I’m here for it!

[@laurrobi90]

I also tried your fried cabbage recipe too! It took me right back to my childhood. Very thankful to have found your channel.

[@sheilamoore6993]

I definitely made these beans, and I just wanted to say that they are everything you said they are. They were totally delicious. I made some home made butter biscuits, Oh my God, talking about delicious they were on point! I chose yours because of the seasonings that you were using I added just a half spoon of creole flavoring and it made it soooooooo good, thank you

[@patricemoore2825]

THAT LOOKS REALLY GOOD ! I'm from New Orleans so I'm loving this recipe. Thank you AB !!

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

You are so welcome Patrice. I f you approve then I know it's good :)

[@keishad4020]

I just bought my red beans and andoulle sausage this morning to make for 2moro. Great minds think alike. 😁 I'm waiting to see your roast beef recipe thats what I made last weekend

[@evahori7986]

I loved how you browned your sausage in the beginning, but then left it out till the last 15 min. of cook time!! This keeps your sausage nice and juicy, versus how it can get dried out when people cook it with the beans for hours.. EXCELLENT Recipe, AB!! ❤💋

[@razberrywatson9602]

Yassss I cooked this for my Family, and when i say they complement me throughout the week and ask me when will I be cook it again oh my God, they loved it., I'm from chicago where they are always hungry in my area. Now I serve bowls of this greatness. Thank you for your awesome Skills it helped me a-lot I am here for it all! ❤️🔥

[@starlishastevenson531]

All you need is some cornbread! That's one of my favorites! Great video 😆

[@domoniquestar]

i’ve been craving some red beans and rice, this was a sign to go ahead and make it this sunday. Thank you 😊

[@lanebashford3982]

This is a great recipe! The Andouille brings it to a higher level and reminds me so much of meals in New Orleans. Thanks AB for another killer recipe and presentation. Love you man!

[@1Lioness_1]

I had a taste for some red beans and rice so I had to stop by. Im cooking it as we speak and I did everything you said except one thing and that was I added a lil Tony's Chachere's Creole seasoning. Thanks for the recipe. It was actually easier then I thought. Stay blessed

[@EricaCaesar]

Yeah ya right AB; you never miss. I'm a New Orleans native and this is the Monday special.

[@grimmeypimpstress]

I just tried your recipe I've been waiting a month. My friend from New orleans says its fantastic. You are definitely upping my cooking skills 1st the mac and cheese, now red beans and rice. Your stew beef is next on my list 😊🍽. Stay blessed
