This dish was traditionally a Monday dish in our household. See Monday was laundry day, and a pot of red beans could cook pretty much all day while the household chores were done. As for a Louisiana dish, I think you definitely left out the hot sauce.
If I want to do this the zatarains way with the rice cooked in the beans, would I just throw the rice in there the last 30 min??? Bc I would definitely make this
Awh, New Orleans on a Monday! My favorite day in my favorite city and my goodness trying red beans and rice all over the city! Laundry day turned into a tradition. Thank you for sharing.
Amen 🙏🏽 Mr. Make It Happen you are making my number one meal of all time Red Beans and Rice and Homemade Cornbread Amen 🙏🏽 you are my favorite Hero of south when I go in neck surgery Keep in prayer 🙏🏽 my brother Amen 🙏🏽 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You can package your herbs in cheesecloth. I have used a smoked ham hock or shank, and smoked turkey tails. I serve it with a side dish of collards, savory cornbread to soak in the collard pot liquor. 😊
If you just let the meat simmer in the beans for another hour they would be creamy without you mushing them…also a sprinkle of gumbo file adds lots of flavor. Red beans potato salad and fried chicken every Monday born and raised in New Orleans
Everyone makes jiffy their own way. If YOU like jiffy minus the sugar and honey, power to you. If HE likes adding sugar and honey, power to him. Learn to accept that ppl have different taste and different likes. Enjoy watching him cook and sharing his recipes minus the criticism.
With the added sugar, that's a corncake, rather than cornbread. And you know what? That's *DELICIOUS.* Anybody talking down on it needs to at least try it before they do so.
I recognized your olive oil. Produced in California. My son is a project manager for a company that specializes in food product welding. He did the expansion in that factory. He brought that olive oil home for the fam. I love the no mess spout!!
I taught myself to make red beans and rice. I just love it. The only problems? Finding Camellia beans in New Mexico, and learning to make smaller quantities. Maybe I'll just share them. 😂❤
I first had this when I went away to military school, 1992, in the 11th grade. It was often served for lunch, every now and then for dinner. It is still one of the most comforting foods I've ever eaten.
Love the addition of honey, sugar, and butter to the cornbread. I am going to try this. Thanks Mr. make it happen another great recipe budget friendly and tasty. Oh and also adding the smoked sausage along with the turkey.😊
I'm from Florida and when I cook red beans and rice i sometimes add a can of medium rotel and I do not cook sweet cornbread I make homemade and its not sweet but it's delicious!
Louis Armstrong--who had a small cookbook inserted into one of his albums--added tomato paste to his red beans. He also often used to sign letters: "Red beans and nicely yours,"
It's been a while since I made a pot of red beans, and now I'm wantin' some in a bad way! Instead of the Andouille, I usually use Conecuh sausage in mine, adds a good flavor, and we love it (makes really good sausage dogs, too)!! I usually use sat least a pound of sausage and just cut the sausage into slices - we love hittin' a good bite of sausage in our red beans. The idea of using chicken broth instead of water to cook them in sounds amazing - I usually just used water, but I'm gonna try cook 'em this way, and I really liked the idea of tying the bay leaves & such together before throwing them in is nothing short of genius, and though I never thought of doing that before, I'll be doing that from now on! Your recipe looks absolutely delicious, but the cornbread - let's talk about the cornbread. Although I do like sweetened cornbread, and it does have it's place, that's a no-no with red beans & rice - Mama used to call that "Yankee Cornbread🤭", and when we were kids, she'd make it for us. We used to eat it with other things, but as I got a little older, and started to cook, I realized two things: 1. cornbread ALWAYS goes with collards & such, but but it's a must with red beans & rice, as well as gumbo, and 2. you NEVER eat you NEVER eat "Yankee Cornbread" with the aforementioned. I love cooking my red beans in the crock pot, letting it simmer all day, and the broth turns out nice & thick - plus when the house gets to smelling REALLY good, I also get a little fun smackin' my husband's hand when he goes to stick a spoon into the pot to get a taste - you know, "quality control", as he calls it (I'm a mean, nasty ol' wife). We're starting to get into "the rainy season" here - though it's only September and it's not started cooling down yet, even though it's not much different from my "recipe" (if that's what ya call it, I don't really have one), I'm definitely going to have to try this. Oh - and your friend's idea of a hot bowl of red beans & rice and a scary movie marathon - genius, PURE GENIUS!! I have to go to the store for some red beans now, thanks!!
I grew up eating (and loving) Jiffy cornbread. (Northern Minnesota). I didn’t even realize there was such a thing as savory cornbread til I dated a guy who was from Arkansas and he brought cornbread bread stuffing to Thanksgiving! 🤦🏻♀️🤣! Anyway I would love to learn more about the dos and donts of both styles because they’re both delicious and clearly both deserve a spot on the buffet table. although maybe not at the same time? Is that ever done?
Idk what happened to the background music, but I'm glad its gone for some reason lol. I just like hearing stuff in its natural element. I love the dudes in the beginning, they convey exactly how I feel whenever I look at your dishes. I WILL be making this ❤
One trick I like to do for tying the herbs together is to just use a sprig of the thyme as the string. Doesn't really hold up super well for thick foods, but you also don't have a random string in your food either. :p
My family's recipe calls for a few ingredients most dont add that I think really make it. A little tomato paste right after you sweat the veggies, you wont taste any tomato but you will add a good bit of MSG thats find in them. Crab Boil, only like a teaspoon, right when you start sweating the veggies. Pickled meat, it ends up falling apart in the beans and can be added right after the beans release their 'sauce'. Used to eat this every monday and then more throughout the week from the left overs, now its an occasional thing since my fiancee isnt much of a cajun. Also, dont be afraid to toss the veggies in a food processors instead of chopping by hand. I recommend all my cajuns to give the first to ingredients a shot, a lot look at the tomato like its going to make it taste like tomatoes, but it wont. I also add tomato paste to my Gumbo and no one has been able to tell that its in their and everyone raves about it.
Damn! I want to make to make everything I see on this channel!!! I can't even remember the last time I had this?? We did have some chili beans and cornbread last week 😁
I grew up in New Orleans in the 50's and 60's and my momma, a Landry from the bayou, cooked red beans every Monday. It became my favorite meal even today, now that I'm retired and travel the country in my motorhome. She always used "pickle meat" in hers which is hard to find on the road. We also like something smoky, like a smoked ham hock, smoked neck bones, tasso, etc. I like to fry off the trinity and Andouille sausage (Jacob's World from La Place is the best) in some bacon grease (and why waste the bacon I just rendered) I always add a cap full of Zatarains liquid crab boil for spicy seasoning in addition to some Tonys and Tabasco. I just made a pot of gumbo earlier today but looks like tomorrow is red beans day, as you flung a craving on me. Corn bread is a great side dish, but I don't like it too sweet, so I'll usually make it from scratch. It's easy, just don't over think it. I sometimes add a dollop of mayo to my plate of leftover beans and was wondering if anyone else did likewise? What kind? Blue Plate, of course, Dawlin'!
I’ve lived in northern Minnesota for 50 of my 60 years. Growing up what we called Mayo was really Miracle Whip. I didn’t have real mayonnaise til I went to college when I was introduced Hellmans which is the preferred mayo of the Midwest. I finally ordered some Duke’s about 10 years ago after seeing it on Diners Drive-ins & Dives so much. Way better than Hellmans I thought. I was able to get it through Walmart too at a decent price til a few years ago. Then I discovered Blue Plate during the pandemic. I think it’s even better than Dukes. Now Blue Plate is getting pretty hard to come by up here at a decent price. I can go back to Hellmans but with sadness. I gave a jar of Blue Plate to a friend who grew up east coast eating Hellmans. The Blue Plate blew her mind. Said hands down way better than Hellmans.
This looks so good. 😍😍 I’ve done beans and rice many times but never Creole red beans. I’m definitely trying this recipe. Just made a beef stew, so it’ll be that for a few days, but this is going on next week’s menu! Do you have any tips on adjusting for a crockpot or should I just stick with my Dutch oven? Also, I’ve never added sugar and honey to my Jiffy….gotta try that too!
I know people frown on it, but I never saw anyone whose rice fluffiness equaled my mom's, and that's because she also rinsed it well until the water was clear, boiled it and then rinsed it again. It was even good after being refrigerated for leftovers.
I had the best red beans and rice when I lived in Colorado Springs. The pastor was from the south and would sell the food. The problem was he would never have enough on hand. All he would have was Lima beans. I would love to make my own!
Great content as usual my brother! Thanks for always bringing It man! I’m about to make this, this weekend! Can u bless us with a chicken Chesapeake recipe!
The meal looks delicious & I don’t really care for beans. Love to see your cooking videos with live taste testers. He said ain’t getting no steps in today 😂😂

This is tradition in New Orleans, every Monday, red beans, and rice! Every store every restaurant every corner store will carry this!
Yes, it's "wash day" on Monday in the French Quarter and every restaurant serves beans and rice. Yum!!!
Yep! Every Monday, laundry day! LOL

Man, when your boy yells “MAMA!”, … I felt that lol
Many years ago, some neighbors moved into my area from New Orleans. The lady taught me how to make red beans and rice. Lucky for me. So delicious!
If so, that means they introduced you to Camilla red beans. IMO they are a must....ya heard me?!?!?!?!?

Stop being a sycophant!
It goes well with the beans and rice a little salty and sweet together it’s so good it’s actually not too sweet you should try it before you knock it😊
It's raining here in Mobile this morning; i am absolutely making red beans and rice with vegetarian Jiffy cornbread now!
With the added sugar, that's a corncake, rather than cornbread. And you know what? That's *DELICIOUS.* Anybody talking down on it needs to at least try it before they do so.
Hey no sweet cornbread hate. I like them both
Great recipe, great presentation. Can't wait to see more.
Damn that looks good. Brings me back to my childhood as well.
This is your absolute best video ever. Thank you
Thank you!
Looks good,. I add a stick of unsalted butter for the beans when I sawtee the vegetables to help thicken it up

next to gumbo (no tomatoes), red beans and rice is the most fabulous comfort food.

Always wash your rice folks...bugs and dirt, about 5 times until the water is cleared.
It also removes the startch which is a good thing!
I know people frown on it, but I never saw anyone whose rice fluffiness equaled my mom's, and that's because she also rinsed it well until the water was clear, boiled it and then rinsed it again. It was even good after being refrigerated for leftovers.
