    Crockpot Red Beans And Rice

    Red beans and rice are traditionally cooked on Mondays, but I could and do eat them every day of the week. This recipe can be made on the stovetop as well. Instead of cooking on low 7-8 hours in the Crockpot, simmer on the stove until the beans are tender, about 2 ½ hours.

    Ingredients
     

    • 1 pound Camellia red beans
    • 64 ounces regular or low-sodium chicken broth divided
    • 1 tablespoons butter or bacon grease
    • 1 large yellow onion chopped
    • 1 green bell pepper chopped
    • 2 celery stalks chopped
    • Salt and Black Pepper
    • 3 garlic cloves minced
    • 1 tablespoon Tony Chachere seasoning
    • 2 bay leaves
    • 1 pound andouille or smoked sausage cut into 4-inch pieces

    Instructions

    • Rinse the beans well, drain and pour in a shallow dish. Cover with 32oz broth and place in the refrigerator overnight. 
    • Next day, heat butter or bacon grease in a small skillet on medium-high heat. Sauté the onion, bell pepper and celery until tender and slightly caramelized, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. 
    • Pour into a 6 or 8 quart Crockpot along with the soaked beans, remaining broth, garlic, Tony Chachere seasoning, bay leaves and sausage. Cover and cook on low 7-8 hours or until the beans are tender. 
    • With a potato masher or fork, mash the beans 8-10 times to thicken the mixture. Serve over cooked rice and with cornbread or hoecakes.

        Recipe says 64oz of broth, divided. I see that half is used to soak the beans, but when does the other half get used?
