CROCK POT RED BEANS AND RICE WITH HAM
Steps:
- Sort the beans, discarding damaged beans and any small stones you might find. Rinse them, put them in a large bowl, and cover with about 2 quarts of water. Let stand at room temperature for 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
- In the morning, drain the beans and transfer them to the crockpot.
- Peel the onion and chop it coarsely.
- Slice the bell pepper lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Chop the pepper.
- Dice the celery.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
- Add the cooked vegetables to the beans along with the ham bone, minced garlic, and 1 1/2 quarts water. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.
- Turn heat to low and cook, covered, for about 4 to 7 hours, or until the beans are tender.
- If desired, in a heavy skillet over medium heat, brown about 1 cup of sliced or diced spicy smoked sausage (such as andouille). Add it to the beans about an hour before they're ready.
- Remove ham bone and mash some of the beans against the side of the pot to thicken the remaining liquids. Remove the meat from bone; dice it and return it to the pot of beans.
- Meanwhile, cook the rice as directed on the package.
- Season the beans with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Spoon the beans and some liquid over servings of rice and sprinkle with chopped green onions.

- Place the beans in a large bowl or pot add wine and cover with water by 2 inches. Let soak for 8 hours or overnight. Drain and set aside.
- In a large pot, heat the bacon grease over medium-high heat.
- Add the onions, celery and bell peppers to the grease in the pot. Season with the Essence and cayenne, and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, about 4 minutes.

- Add the beans and stock and/or water, stir well, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender and starting to thicken, about 2 hours. (Should the beans become too thick and dry, add more water, about 1/4 cup at a time.)

Or remove 3-4 cups of beans and puree in blender or with immersion blender, return to pot. Continue to cook until the beans are tender and creamy, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and remove the bay leaves.
