Did you cook it with the lid off? It looks like the liquid in the beans reduced a lot.
And did you brown the sausage before putting it in?

There's a lot of excess water until about an hour and a half before its finished. The beans start making a mush and thickening up. If you still have too much water at the end, uncover and run on high until thick enough.

I brown my sausage and veggies before putting em in.

I turned mine on about 30 minutes ago but I don't want to post pics tonight because my crockpot is white not the fancy stainless.

Was thinking the exact same thing. Typically even if I mash my beans down, they don't come out as creamy looking.

Mines typically come out looking like JackD's.

Mines a new Orleans style pot, you must have a natchitoches batch.

Mine are pretty creamy. I probably could've put a lil less water but I was away from the house all day and didn't want to run low on water.

No cook with the lid on and for the last 2 hours when I put the sausage in I remove the lid. I do not brown the sausage.

I got some Andouille from Bailey's, it makes the best Red Beans, just one ham hock, a bad of beans, trinity, seasoning, and a stick of andouille.

You have to go to St. John for Andoullie and St. Mary for Boudin, IMO.
