CLASSIC RED BEANS AND RICE



Classic Red Beans and Rice image

This is made with a ham hock and smoked sausage, to infuse the beans with loads of flavor. You'll need to give the beans an overnight soak (not listed in the time to make the recipe). Cook your rice separately, as you'll be spooning rice into the bottom of the bowl and then topping with the flavorful beans.This recipe takes time, but it is so worth it. Adapted from an Emeril Lagasse recipe.
