    Look up these recipes in a Southern Food website - Hoppin' John, Dirty Rice, Perloo. One or all of these will give you the right seasonings for the authentic flavors. Please do take the time to soak the red beans overnite...the boil & let sit method is fine, but for best flavor and results the overnight is easiest. Hope you have a rice cooker? For serving, I usually put a small mound of rice in each bowl [or on each plate] and then put a dip of beans & sausage on top. Some folks like 'soupy beans' with more liquid--so have big bowls ready in case your in-laws are the soupy style. Have dishes of hot chow-chow pickle and some chopped white onions as side garnishes. Sorry if you're a health nut, but please use white rice rather than brown...more authentic!

    once you're a foul cook dinner, i could shop it ordinary. Zatarans makes a very good purple beans & rice kit blend. you ought to only make that and upload some cajun (andoulli) sausage or smoked sausage to it.

    You dont really have to soak your red beans over night all you do is put them in a pot add water and bring to a boil for 2 minutes and let sit covered for 2hrs and rinse and proceed with recipe.
