Fat Tuesday Beans & Rice
Kim'Z Red Beans & Rice
1 Smoked Ham Hock
1# Dried Red Beans, rinsed
2 Tbsp Bacon Fat or oil
1# OkieSpice Andouille Sausage, loosely diced
1 onion, chopped
3/4 cup chopped celery
3/4 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
( poblano or sweet aji works great too!)
4 cloves garlic, chopped
8 cups Chicken Stock
1 Tsp OkieSpice Cajun Hot Heat Rub Seasoning
2 Tsp OkieSpice Creole Seasoning
1/4 tsp OkieSpice Ground Thyme
1 Tsp OkieSpice Hickory Smoked Sea Salt
1 Tsp OkieSpice Smoked Black Pepper
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Using a large Dutch Oven, sauté veggies in oil over high heat for a couple minutes. Add sausage and cook for 10 minutes or so. Add the remaining ingredients and cover with lid. Place in oven and forget about it for 2 hours. Then stir (if you want to) , turn oven down to 225 and let it go another 3 or 4 hours, stir again at 3 hours.....if beans are tender it’s ready!
Serve over cooked rice(Zatarains white rice is the best!)
We use Cindy’s Cin-fully Hot Cayenne Sauce for added heat.
