That does look like an all day to make meal, but well worth it. ;)

Rick that does look mighty good.  I love red beans and rice too!


BUT... (and this is a serious inquiry, because I used to wonder about this)  I've always used kidney beans because everything I've read says that what's referred to as red beans in the deep south are red kidney beans (conversely small red beans are small kidney beans).   Even John Besh and Paul Prudhomme's recipes call for red kidney beans.

Do you (or anyone else) have any other info about this?

That looks delicious Rick!!! I am like you and use the small red beans. To me the red kidney beans taste too starchy. The dry small red beans are hard to find here and I order them from Amazon. Don

Do you (or anyone else) have any other info about this?

Small red beans (aka Mexican red beans) are a (slightly) different bean than kidney beans. Smaller, usually lighter color, different nutritional info, smoother, hold their shape better, said to have a more "beany" taste and taste better cold than kidneys. Having said all that, if you ain't got one, use the other.

Oh man, that looks good. Red beans and rice is my favorite and adding the crawfish is even better. It is about to be crawfish season and we will be able to buy he live crawfish from my friend that has the Cajun restaurant near us.
