4 cans red kidney beans
1 lb. smoked sausage
1 lg. onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 c. cooked white rice
1 can beer
Salt, pepper, Tabasco to your taste

Mix all ingredients together and simmer on low heat for 1 1/2 hours. Stir frequently. Add water as needed to keep mixture from becoming sticky. Can be made spicier by adding a hotter variety of smoked sausage.
