Instructions to make T' Jim's New Orleans Red Beans & Rice:

- In the same pot over medium heat, add the 2 tablespoons of oil, onion, bell pepper, celery, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and thyme. Saute until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the andouille back into the pot along with the ham and bay leaves. Saute for another 5 to 6 minutes.
- As the red beans, garlic, and water to cover the beans. Water level should be 3/4 the way up the pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a slow simmer
- Let the beans simmer uncovered for about 3 hours occasionally stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot to make sure nothing is sticking.
- As the beans cook, you will notice the level go down due to evaporation, that is exactly what you want. When the level reaches halfway, add water to get it back up to 3/4 off the pot.
- On the third addition of water, you will begin making some of the beans against the side of the pot, this is what make them creamy in the end. Do not mash all of them though.
- Continue simmering until enough evaporation gives you some creamy and saucy red beans.
