For a quick fix, I use that Mahattma's (spelling) red beans and rice mix and then cut up some pre cooked sausage links to go in at the same time. It ain't Mom's home done recipe, but, it works in a fix.

Hey, thanks.......but I'm going to defer to Tom Ramsey on this one. (I haven't cooked red beans and rice from 'scratch', yet.)

How 'bout it, Tom? You back from the Big Apple, yet?

Get you some Camiel red beans and soak them over night in some cool water. That will softeen them up for the next night. Then the next night put you a little oil in a pot and brown you a trinity(onion, celery, & Bell pepper). Cook it untill the oinion are clear. Then just use the water you covered the beans the night before. Add the trinity and cook untill you can mush a bean against the side of the pot. Then add some Savioes Cajun sauage. Any other kind and you anit cook'in south Louisiana Style. After that I would season to taste with salt, pepper, & Louisiana hot sause from evangline ( NOT TABASCO). Other ingrediants that I will only disclose in a PM, so send me one if you want this to work. After you get them right mush the beans against the side to make them creamy. Then cook you a pot of rice. I perfer the Mahatma's parboiled rice, becasue it don't stick. I do not add deer sauage to my read beans, it just don't seem right. I save me deer sauage and DUCK sauage for the gumbo at the end of the summer. This is when I cook all that is left in the freezer before next year. The purpose of a good gumbo is to use up what you have left before hunting season is here! A good gumbo is another post for another time! I don't weigh three hundred pounds because I like water you know!

I got a recipe from a friend of mine Frank Davis for a double baked duck that would make you slap your mama for depriving you for so long!
