Instructions to make Red beans and rice with smoked sausage:

  6. Simmer low covered but cracked, for about an hour and then check for seasonings, salt to taste but I only did a few grinds of salt (add 2 to 3 tbsp of hot sauce at this time)
  7. Lightly smash some beans and low simmer for another 15 minutes and serve.
  8. Serve with rice and top with green onions and crusty bread on the side
