I cooked this recipe for Sunday dinner. I used black beans instead of red and added cumin, oregano, paprika, and smoked turkey necks (instead of ham hocs). Fabulous!

I followed this recipe exactly and was pretty disappointed. It ended up being very bland. I bet that using sausage instead of ground beef (as many reviewers did) would have much better results. As it is, this recipe was not worth the time it took to cook.

Pretty Bland, but ok if you add some hot sauce.

I had never made red beans before even though I live in Louisiana. My husband LOVED this recipe. The only thing I did was used sausage instead of ground meat.

This is a bland recipe, I tried adding more seasonings and hot sauce to give it some life, but I'm still stuck with a big pot of bland beans and rice in my fridge. Not at all like my friends in NOLA make...maybe I should get their recipe.

Very tasty. I also used sausage instead of ground beef but am planning to try the beef version sometime soon.

I made this dish as written except for one thing... I did NOT do ground beef but instead used smoked sausage, and I used smoked ham hocks. (I kept thinking that the ground beef would make it more like chili instead of beans and rice.) Everything else was the same (oh, I cooked it about 45 mins longer, too) and the end result was a smokey, yummy meal!

No taste to it. I have had red beans n rice many times. I made it exactly according to the directions. Maybe it was supposed to be a smoked ham hock instead of ham hock in the ingredients. I had to add so many spices after it was finished just to make it edible. Will never make this recipe again.

Hey, y'all! These are definitely southern pintos! Fantastic! The only thing I did differently was use 6 slices of hickory smoked bacon instead of the ham hocks. What a great mixture of flavors! Don't leave out the bay leaves! It gives that great "What is that?"

This recipe is Awesome! I recently tried this recipe and talk about authentic flavor! I made two alterations to this recipe...I traded out country ham and spicy breakfast sausage for the meats! I pulsed the country ham pieces in the food processor because they were hard to cut. If you are looking for a good recipe try this one!

Great recipe. It is almost identical to the one I make. The only difference is i use smoked sausage cut into tiny pieces instead of ground beef.
