Another stellar recipe. We made this last night and it was tasty. Couldn’t find ham hocks so just skipped. Didn’t matter. Not only flavorful but tasted like memories of growing up!

While cooking it in the instant pot it broke (due to my idiocy). I moved the ingredients to a slow cooker and it still came out great.

I made half the recipe this last night to use for lunches next week; it smelled great.

For you other readers, when they say “soak for 8 hours or overnight”, believe them. I didn’t and it took an hour and ten minutes to soften the beans.

I also eat it with Naan bread if I don’t have rice.
Great recipe!

I made this today almost exactly as written and it was fantastic!! Believe it or not, it all fit in my IP mini 3 qt. pressure cooker! I did have to remove 1/4 cup of broth to get at the fill line, though. I used Goya red beans instead of kidney beans. I was a bit leery at adding 2 tbsp. of (reduced sodium) soy sauce, but it really amped up and complemented the flavors perfectly. I also used a cornstarch slurry to thicken the broth after cooking. No added salt for me, as the smoked pork hocks and soy sauce added enough on their own.
I’ll be making this recipe again and again. Thank you so much for all that you do for us, Amy, Jacky and team!!

Great recipe. Just as good as the Red Beans and Rice in New Orleans.

Hi Conrad,

happy to hear from you 🙂

If using canned red kidney beans, You can just cook them with the rest of the ingredients.

Take care & have a wonderful week

Hi, I really enjoyed this recipe. If you’re using canned red kidney beans, what’s the pressure cook time? I look forward to your feedback and please do have a great day.

Do you have to used smoked pork hock, finally found one but it was impossible to shred and alot of fat and skin to cut thru. Can you use like a double smoked han. As it tasted like ham when I tried to shred it. I’m thinking most of the flavor is coming from the saugage used? I couldn’t find andouille so found double smoked Kelbelessa thinking can just use a small double smothed ham. The double smoked sausauge this time bumped up the flavor unless the extra flavor came from the pork hock. But both hubby and me love it.
5 stars otherways. My husbands new favorite dish we had it first time several days ago and asked for it again.

Excellent! I made a couple changes; subbed chorizo for andouille and left out the hock. Absolutely delicious. Thank you!
