I have been itching to try some RB&R since this thread first popped up. I made up something based on the theme, probably not authentic, but came out tasty anyway.
Started with a couple tablespoons of bacon grease.
Browned some ham and andouille and added a little sauteed onion and a chopped clove of Georgian Fire garlic.
There are no small red beans available around here, so I used pinto beans. After soaking them for 24 hours I pressure cooked them for 11 minutes and they still weren't done enough to suite me, so I boiled them hard for a while - until they were falling apart and made a thick broth.
Served with a piece of fresh cornbread and a good beer.
