1 pound smoke sausages sliced
1 large onion chopped
2 garlic clove mashed
1/2 cup celery
1/8 teaspoon cayanna pepper
salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 cup Uncle Ben’s long grain rice (cooked)



Procedure:

1. Boil turkey tails in 8 cups of water 1 hour

2. Add Beans and cook 1 hour

3. Add all ingredients to the cooking beans.(not rice)

4. Cook 30 minutes

5.start mashing some of the beans on the side of the pot with a big spoon
