Red Beans With Ham Hocks Instant Pot IP step by step
- These are the types of beans I am using. Half the bag in my case..
- Add dried beans to IP liner, after picking through them for debris..
- Add broth, it needs to cover dried beans by about an inch to an inch and half, adjust as required, the ingredients measurement is a guide line..
- Type of Sausage I am using.
- Ham Hocks I am using (half the package) boneless.
- Slice sausage, add to the liner with ham Hocks.
- Clean and cut veggies, I like a larger cut, add seasoning. Decision point - if you salt before you cook the beans they have a slight firmer texture, if you salt after the beans are cooked they have a softer texture. Add salt for the texture of beans you desire. Here for firmer, later for softer..
- Set IP to pressure cook for 50 minutes, high..
- I allow it to rest for 5 minutes after the cook time, just to make sure it has settled down inside, then quick release remaining pressure.
- Remove lid, remove ham hocks, debone (if needed) and shred, put meat back into pot, stir..
- We were eating this with bread, not rice. We wanted a thinner soup like constancy. It you want red beans & rice, you can either take a stick blender and beat up some of the beans, or use a corn starch slurry to thicken it..
