so throw us northerners a recipe. i used to live in La and love RB&R and am not a box guy for anything This recipe probably isn't as authentic as Mannlicher's, but we really enjoy it... https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbth...818056/Re_Red_Beans_and_Rice#Post4818056
An honest man's pillow, is his peace of mind... JM

With me being a Florida Cracker, and not at all native to Louisiana, my recipe may or may NOT be 'authentic'.  It's an off the cuff list of what I usually use, and how I put it together. Recipes for RB&B are as prolific as recipes for gumbo, jambalaya or pecan pie.

Got to try red beans and rice yesterday, for the first time.
Had a chicken fried steak yesterday morning at a local restraunt (Cafe 440) and they had red beans and rice for a side dish option.
Great stuff! Glad I finally go to try it!
And...The chicken fried steak was the best I've ever had...(yum yum!)

You run out of Bud Light...? The "Spam fried in margarine" of beers!
If you take the time it takes, it takes less time.

I don't drink Bud light. I drink Bud Select. There is a huge difference between them.

Thanks! Virgil B. Tasso is a dry, hard spiced ham that they use in Cajun cooking for flavor mostly. I have a cousin in Baton Rouge that owns a grocery store. He keeps me supplied.

Mannlicher,
Thanks!
Looked in several local markets yesterday, and couldn't find TASSO.
Will keep looking.

Virgil if you can't find Tasso which is kind of regional your deli might have proscuito which would be a viable substitute.

Picked up some Cajun dried beef yesterday.
Figured this should be pretty close to Tasso.
Did see proscuito. Will try it next.
Also picked up some small red beans.
Thanks!

I always leave them in the pot on top of the range. I usually put a little heat under them first, too.
