Traditionally I’ve used sausage and ham hocks cut 1” thick.

I’ve recently discovered smoked pork necks and love them.

Anything else I should try?

Smoked tasso


I've been hooked on

Just grill it and add it to the plate of beans with some cornbread and butter.

I've done andouille, smoked sausage, HOT smoked sausage, smoked ham hocks, picked pork and smoked alligator sausage. Andouille and smoked hot sausage really are my favorite but you can't go wrong with any I've mentioned.

I picked up two pounds of dry Blue Runner beans yesterday to cook next week.

You’re correct...
My Mom always used pickled pork in all of her beans.

I do use it in my white beans.

Need to go back to the reds.

Thank you.

I’ve used it....I like the Smokey flavor and reasonably priced.

Good cause too.


In New Orleans we don’t have access to the best sausages.

I usually go with Richards ....I think the best you can get in a grocery store

I been using that sausage lately too.

In my beans I use bacon grease and sear smoked ham hocks and sausage. I had seared the sausage in the past and put in at the beginning of the summer. I find it cooks all the flavor out the sausage tho. So next time I’ll add it in later. Get some flavor in the beans and keep some in the sausage.

I always start with a dab of bacon grease, then 3-5 slices of salt pork rendered. Always have scraps/bones from smoked hams. Andouille on the inside. Smoked sausage on the side. Often times a little tasso.

New Orleans Smoked Sausage is legit.

IMO, Rabideauxs Smoked Andouille is the best. It works as well as any sausage for traditional LA dishes.

I like the texture, but it doesn’t have enough smoke for my taste.
