Slow Cooker Red Beans and Rice

Slow Cooker red beans & rice made with dried beans, and cooked with a ham bone, bacon and smoked sausage. |
Slow Cooker Red Beans and Rice
Though it's a tradition in the Deep South, we don't have red beans and rice every single Monday of every week at my house, but, I admit that when we don't, things do seem to feel a little out of sorts for me!It's just a routine that has been part of the culture down here for all of my life really. Even as a career woman working outside of the house, red beans and rice were the special of the day, every Monday, at local restaurants we frequented for lunch.

Stewed Baby Lima Beans
Baby lima beans, stewed down to creamy perfection and seasoned nicely with bacon and ham, are as at home as a side dish as they are a main dish, when paired up with a nice garden salad, cornbread and iced tea.
Stewed Baby Lima Beans
I mostly prepare frozen baby lima beans as a side to be honest, like in succotash, but we don't eat them as often as I like, because they do require some advance planning for cooking, and unfortunately I tend to forget about them!
Unlike my beloved butter beans, it's a rare occasion where I make them from fresh or dried, but I don't know why, because they are just so much more delicious and worth the effort.

Cajun White Beans with Andouille
White beans, seasoned with the Trinity, garlic, green onion, parsley, bacon and andouille sausage, and served over white rice.
Cajun White Beans with Andouille
White beans are a common dish in this part of the Deep South, second only to red kidney beans for our red beans and rice.
I love these beans and I especially love to take the leftovers, simmer them on the stovetop with some chicken stock for one mighty fine soup y'all! Delish.

Southern Creamy Butter Beans (Large Lima Beans)
Large lima beans, or butter beans as we refer to them in my part of the Deep South, have a lovely creamy texture, and with this mix of seasonings, are just pure comfort food.
Creamy Butter Beans
Good old-fashioned, creamy butter beans, are a southern favorite for sure!
Not to be too confusing, Southerners refer to both large and small lima beans as butterbeans, although there is also butter peas to consider too, a smaller pea-shaped cousin, and a pea that is actually a bean and not a pea, akin to other Southern peas, such as lady cream and zipper, and that some Southerners also call butter beans ... but not to be confused with buttered peas which is a whole 'nother thing - just to confuse the rest of the world, as we Southerners love to do.
Whew! You just gotta love The South.
