    List of Ingredients




    1 pound of dried red beans
    1 onion, chopped
    2-3 cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 cup of bacon drippings
    1/2 cup of flour
    1 pound of smoked sausage, sliced
    Salt
    1/2 teaspoon of red pepper

    Recipe



    Soak the beans overnight in cold water. Put them on to simmer, adding as little water as needed, and season them initially with 2 teaspoon salt and the red pepper. Once the beans are about 3/4 done, cook the onion in the drippings, add the flour and the garlic and make a roux. Cook same to the frothy stage. Turn out heat under the roux then stir in 3 or more cups of the bean liquid. Cook the mixture until smooth and flour taste is gone. Stir this gravy into the beans. Slightly brown the sausage and add it. Correct seasoning and simmer beans, covered, over very low heat until they are tender. Serve over rice.
