Red Beans and Rice
- 1 lb. bag of red kidney beans
- 1 (16-oz.) container chopped onion mix
- 2 T. minced garlic
- 3-4 bay leaves
- 1 lb. of salted pork meat or ham hock
- 1 lb. sliced smoked sausage
- Salt, red/black pepper, garlic powder
- Rice
- Place beans in large pot and cover with water. You can place in refrigerator overnite to soak or not.
- Place pot over medium-low heat, add all ingredients. Go easy on salt because the pork or ham hock is salty.
- Let simmer for 1-2 hours or until tender. You may have to add more water if it gets too thick before the beans are tender.
- Taste for seasoning.
- Serve over hot rice along with good garlic bread or hot biscuits.
