1. Real andouille (preferably Jacob's).

2. A cup of dry red wine, you would not believe what this does for red beans (also black-eyed peas).

I enjoy a few drops of crab boil in my red beans,
but that's just me.

I also don't cook down the trinity. The beans cook for so long, you really don't need to do that.


This. I add my trinity about 30 minutes before the beans are done.

Chef Buster Holmes' recipe included an 8 oz can of tomato sauce per lb of beans. I've tried it. It doesn't make it taste tomatoey at all and it adds some savory umami flavor.

Soak the beans in 12oz of beer. Just learned this trick. They are now awesome.

Do you discard the beer before cooking? I've read about using beer with pinto beans, but I haven't done it.
