Steps
  1. The day before, prepare your sausage if using and place i the fridge to chill until ready to make red beans.
  2. subheading: Beans:
  3. The morning of toss all of the red bean ingredients in to a slow cooker with the sliced andouille, stir, and set to LOW for 12 hours.
  4. About an hour before the beans are ready, begin to make the cornbread and rice.
  5. subheading: Cornbread:
  6. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Place the butter in a 9x9-inch square glass baking dish and put in the oven to melt. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. Measure out the milk and maple syrup in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup. Add the prepared eggs and whisk well with a fork. Gradually add melted butter to the milk mixture, making sure to leave 2 tablespoons in the bottom of the baking dish. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk just until the flour is all moistened.
  7. Scrape the batter into the buttered baking dish and spread it out with a spatula. Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are beautifully golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. subheading: Rice:
  9. In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, add the oil. Once heated, add the rice and cook for 1 minute. Add the bell pepper and garlic, cook for 2 additional minutes. Add in the seasonings and water. Turn heat up and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low. Place a tight fitting lid over the pot and simmer for 12 to 13 minutes or until the rice is fully cooked. Remove from the heat and let sit, with the lid on for 6 to 8 minutes. Fluff with a fork and taste for salt.
