- 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.
