Ok, ok, so it's not what you think as BBQ

But at least I have pics.;) I started by grilling some Andouille Sausage for this dish, the one thing that I should have taken a picture, but didn't. Well, the dish is Red Beans & Rice, which of course, has the Andouille Sausage in it. Any great smokey meat in the dish gives it great flavor, ham being a great favorite of many. I've even used chicken that I smoked on the grill. I do my Red Beans & Rice with a couple of ingredients not often used, a small can of tomato sauce and a beer added to the liquid. Hey, like I said, the sausage was done on the grill, sliced and halved and then put into the pot of red beans. Of course, the main ingredients are the kidney beans, the Holy Trinity, and the Andouille, plus the seasonings. I love this stuff, guess I have a little canjun in me:cool:....................d

This is at about the 4 hour mark of cooking, close to done, if there is any such thing. The point of this post is that the brill or smoker can be used in ordinary dishes, even though the final product doesn't show it. Think outside the box.

Here's the finished plate with the Red Bean served with a ring of rice, topped with some chopped raw onions. See, I did include a picture of a BBQ book....:cool: I overserved myself, as there was way that I could eat this plate full without stuffing myself. I put about a 1 &1/2 cups into bowls that I freeze and take one out whenever I get ready for dinner. The wife doesn't eat it, so I'm good to go for about 12 easy meals when I don't feel like cooking. Wife is on her own.

Great cook David. There's no rule against posting stove dishes with grilled/barbecued ingredients. I made a big batch of andouille last Winter and have used it in a bunch of gumbos - there's no substitute!
 
great looking beans a rice!!! I have been craving some for a while but it has been too darn hot to make any.
