Kent, I'm 57 years young, and have eaten a lot of food in my life. Red beans and rice is one of my top 5 all-time favorite dishes! I grew up eating it and have never tired of it. I grew up in Houston, but now I'm retired and living in Northern Michigan. Thank you for sharing your recipe and experiences! 💜

11 of us lived off red beans and rice for almost a month when we were in the swamp in 81.. Breakfast lunch and dinner. Keeps you full.

Thank you SO much for keeping Justin Wilson's legacy and memory alive. He was one of my childhood heroes, and one of my fondest memories is watching his show with my dad. God bless you, your family, and all that you do.

Greetings from Louisiana! I’ve been making red beans and rice and watching them made my entire life. I just put some on this morning around 6am after soaking them overnight. I like cooking mine in the crockpot, low and slow. Seasoning and ingredients are so important, Bay leaves are a must, so is the trinity but you’ve also got to have your Tony’s and some paprika. Of course parsley, salt (I use sea salt), cracked black pepper and garlic all have to be included too. Most people do not use ham, we may add a little Tasso but we like our sausage for red beans and rice. The ham bone is also a great addition for extra flavor. I use my ham for my white beans. White beans and ham are fantastic.
Also, you’ve got to smash some of your beans! Red beans and rice need to thicken and get that beautiful texture. You either smash some against the pot or you take some out and smash them in a bowl, then add them back to the pot. For the final step you need a pan of sweet corn bread. Nothing taste better than some good corn mixed in a bite with your red beans and rice!

We're from South Louisiana, & your recipe is pretty close to how we cook our beans. 👍 Your "sermon" at the end was excellent & so true!! Thanks for the reminder to appreciate every day! God bless y'all 💞

I grew up with Justin Wilson on the TV ....and growing up in south Louisiana we ate all them dishes, and then some! Watching y'alls video, with a brand-spankn' new copy of y'alls cookbook besides me no less, is a joy and SO looking forward to getting some of your recipes smelling up my kitchen. Thank y'all for sharing so much with us!

Louis Armstrong always ended his letters by signing Beans, and Ricely Yours". Thank you for this video. I could smell it all the way from Colorado.

Kent, you made my heart and my belly rumble with this one. Fifty years ago, I was living in New Orleans as a freshman at Tulane University and I literally didn't have two nickels to rub together and make a dime. So I'd go down to the backside of the Quarter where there was a little ol' hole in the wall called Buster Holmes Restaurant. You could get a plate of red beans and rice for .50! And a Barqs root bear for another quarter. And if you were especially flush, for an extra buck you could get a foot-long hunk of Polish sausage to go with it. I learned how to make red beans and rice by comparing it to Buster's and it's still one of my favorite meals. Thanks, Kent. You're an inspiration and a treasure!

God bless you Kent and Shan we (my wife and I) love you guys and your food is always a hit on our table. We have friends from up north coming tonight, (we live in New Zealand so up north for us is about 10hrs north by road) and I felt Red beans and rice gracing the supper table this evening and might even make some FAMOUS Cowboy Kent Rollins cornbread to go with it. Thank you both and may God continue to bless you and your family. All our love and prayers

You don't even have to be a cook to enjoy watching Kent Rollins.

New Orleans born and raised. Been cooking beans since i was 9 with my Mama, I am 64.
Red beans is a one pot dinner. Saute your ham or hot sausage or smoke sausage in the pot, add your trinity, then add the beans and the water. Season and bring to a boil. Cook 45 mins uncovered on med, then cover and cook on med low, til tender. When the beans have cooked, uncover, add 1/2 stick of butter per lb.of beans. Uncover and reduce and the beans will cream naturally. New Orleans red beans and rice are a creamy bean dish, no need to mash the beans.
Love your cooking Ken❤❤

I’m from southeast Louisiana and that’s perfect red beans and rice just how we cook them. Thanks for keeping it real and authentic my friend! Also look forward to your videos!

We got rain here in Beggs, OK the last two nights. It was lovely. But I’m originally from south of New Orleans and appreciate good red beans and rice. Thanks for the video!

I'm from Mississippi and we had Red Beans and Rice at least 3 to 4 times a month. It is one of my favorites to this day! Cornbread or buttermilk biscuits on the

I really like simple rib-sticking meals like this one. It makes me want to put on my “Can’t Get Full on Fancy” apron and get to cooking those beans!
