Red Beans and Rice on Monday

Place beans in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and add enough water to cover beans by 1 to 2 inches; cover and soak overnight. Drain beans and cover with fresh water. Add salt pork and bring to a low boil; reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat; add onion and garlic and cook 3 minutes or until golden. Add mixture to beans along with the parsley, salt, and TABASCO^® Sauce. Cover and simmer 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours longer, or until beans are tender enough to mash easily with a fork. Add hot water as needed to keep beans covered, and stir occasionally. When the beans are done they will have soaked up most of the liquid. Check seasoning and serve over rice.
