Start dicing that veg

OP here
Saute down the veg a bit untup onions are translucent and peppers are soft

Once the veg has been sauted add the turkey necks , beans, tomatoe sauce and 2 cups of water. Cook on high until a soft boil begins then dump down to low. Season as needed but be conservative with the salt, the smoked meat products will add a lot

Cook down the whole mixture for about 2.5 hours until there is just enough liquid to cover the beans. Add cayenne to taste. I added a little bit of red wine vinegar at the last 15 minutes to complement the richness added by the turkey necks.

Pick off whatever meat you can get off the turkey necks and serve the dish over your favorite rice. Easy, cheap, filling and delicious.

OP back again.

R8 me faggots.

also, I used the turkey necks because I remember king jack making some. I don't know why he was so in love with them. Very little meat and they look like dicks.

I assume you made a typo with $20, cuz if you paid that much for your goods your grocer sucks

In any case, red beans and rice are a really tasty and cheap dish. Plus, ham hocks!

Looks okay.
I probably would've added more tomato sauce, maby some beer, used cube steak instead of turkey and turned it into a stew.

>>7237661
Got it all for 16ish

seemed pretty reasonable to me.

>>7237655
Turkey necks are good because for the most part they are supposed to just impart flavor

>20 dollar red beans and rice
The whole point of red beans and rice is that it's plentiful and cheap, the fuck are you doing spending twenty dollars on it?

>>7237711
5-6 servings for 16 dollars

Not expensive

>>7238647
You should be able to make it for $10 max.

>>7238657
You can make rice and beans for less, if you're a utilitarian who hates flavor and thinks vegetables are useless frippery for spendthrifts.

>>7238667
Even with vegetables.

>>7238674
Except no? Vegetables cost money. You don't get them for free with your purchase of beans.

where the fuck do you live where this costs that much to make? I could go to my local mexican grocery or a produce stand and get the vegetables for about 2 bucks, dried beans and rice for less then 2 bucks more.

>>7238685
Except yes.
>$1 bag of dried beans
>$2 for bag of celery
>$1.50 for a bag of onions
>$1.50 for bell peppers
>$3 for a bag of rice
9 bucks, there you go.

>>7237637
Needs more than Cayenne. Can i suggest if Amerifat why not Chipotles Adobo?

And am i the only one, but Bell Peppers are RIDICULOUS expensive here in Australia.

>>7238698
>dried beans

Some of us would like to eat dinner TODAY, you fucking turtle.

>>7238698
Oh I forgot the meat. 2 bucks for hamhocks, bringing it to $11. You can even bring it back under 10 by getting a smaller bag of rice.

>>7237591

Twenty bucks??

Red beans $1.59
Onion $0.75
Ham hock $2.50 for two

That looks more like $5.50 to me.

>>7237645
Looks pretty fuggin good except for the meat.
My mom always made beans and rice just by cooking the beans in water, I never thought to cook them in a sauce or anything like that.
I probably wouldn't add the meat if it was me though

>>7238707
Five cans of store brand kidney beans is $3.25 plus tax.

>>7238698
Turkey necks cost five and I used brown rice.

>>7238704
Are you American visiting aus? We call them capsicums

>>7238827
Actually people call them paprikas.

>>7238744
Sounds like you come from flyoverville and only eat bland food

>>7237655
fuck jack - why didn't you save the meat $ for a nice steak later? there are enough good nutrients in it as it is.

>>7238859
as a proud resident of flyoverville, I will tell you that we flavor everything with ham hocks or bacon. You don't know what the fuck you are talking about.

>>7238873
Because flavor is a thing.
