This may be the easiest recipe I've ever found, and we use it fairly often.
2 lbs dried red kidney beans
2 lbs good smoked sausage
16 cups water
2 tablespoons salt
Cooking
Get out the crock pot. Rinse your beans well. Cut up your sausage into bite-sized pieces. Put beans, sausage, water and salt into a slow cooker. Turn it on low, and leave it for at least 12 hours. I put these beans on last night about 8:00 and let them go all night. I stirred them when I was drinking coffee this morning, and they are doing fine. It's nearly 11:00 mow. In another half hour, I'll put on a pot of rice, and Belle will make a cornbread.
If you don't need a huge pot, this recipe is easily halved. Bon apetit.
Serendipity - Have the bean bag on the counter but was getting ready to clean and soak them. I've never put beans on without soaking so I guess I'm having bean & rice tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah! That's the old standby. I add a little Tabasco when I stir mine.
ReplyDeleteSubstitute canned vegetable broth for the water, and cut back your seasoning.
ReplyDeleteI hope there was some seasoning in there somewhere. A good strong sausage can only go so far.
