I'm not really putting measurements on here but I'd say you want to cook minimum a pound of beans.
-Soak red kidney beans overnight
-Sautee onions, garlic, celery in a 4 quart pot
-Pour in beans and cover with water
-Throw in 2-3 bay leaves
-Add meats (if you want them to be tender)
-Salt/pepper to taste
-cayenne pepper, solely based off of your heat tolerance
-mix
-Bring to broil reduce heat
-Cook at least 8 hours on medium low heat
-Stir occasionally
-beans should be a viscous, not runny/watery and not incredibly thick. Add water as needed to thin out beans.
-Serve with white rice
-Garish with Italian parsley and/or chopped green onions
-if you didn't Add meats in the beginning, serve with your choice of smoked sausage, bone in pork chop, Andouille, or boudin on the side and/or French bread with butter
-Top beans and rice with your favorite hot sauce (typically louisiana hot, Tabasco, or crystal)
This is your basic no frills red beans that tastes delish.
