Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
• 2 Tbsp Creole Seasoning
• 1 Cup Onion, chopped

• 1 Cup Andouille Sausage, Cubed
• 1 Cup Tasso, Cubed
• 1/2 lb. Small Red Beans (soaked overnight or for at least a few hours)
• 1 Tbsp Fresh Garlic, Minced
• 3 1/2 Cups Chicken Stock (You could certainly use water)
• 3 Fresh Bay Leaves
• 1 tsp Red Wine Vinegar (When I don't use Pickle Meat, I add a little vinegar because I like the flavor it lends. Pickle Meat makes wonderful Red Beans by the way; recipe forthcoming.)

• 1 Tbsp Italian Parsley, Finely Chopped
• 1/4 Cup Green Onions, thinly sliced on the bias
