Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Beans

Rinse the red beans under cold water and soak them overnight in a large bowl with enough water to cover. Drain and set aside.

2

Cook the Sausage

In a large pot, cook the bear creek sausage over medium heat until browned. Remove the sausage and set aside.

3

Sauté Vegetables

In the same pot, add onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Combine Ingredients

Add the soaked beans, bay leaves, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and water or chicken broth to the pot. Stir to combine.

5

Simmer

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender.

6

Add Sausage

After 1.5 hours of cooking, return the sausage to the pot and continue cooking for the remaining 30 minutes.

7

Cook Rice

In a separate pot, cook the long-grain rice according to package instructions.

8

Serve

Serve the red beans and sausage over the cooked rice, with hushpuppies on the side.
