And ready to go fits the granite top kitchen island really good Outback kamado Bar and Grill

Some organic red kidney beans grown by a friend. Did an overnight soak started with boiling water and 1 t baking soda. In the morning did a water change and boiled the beans for about 15 mins to get rid of the bean poison. Changed the water and they are ready to go into the chili. Plated and added some shaved smoked cheese. Just after lunch my order of organic black garlic arrived. I wish it had come an hour earlier. Nice taste and texture, it is very moist and a little sticky.:)

I will - NOPE! Yeah, the black garlic cloves are almost like gummy bears in texture. I just got my 2nd order of them. I absolutely love them in mashed potatoes! Great suggestion, Robert. Haven't made a batch of red beans and rice in a while and I have both andouille and tasso in the freezer. Maybe Monday (when else? LOL!)

That chilli looks great Mac. I like that bowl its in! What’s the shelf life of the black garlic? that chilli takes me back when I was a kid. My dad used to make a huge pot of chili on some Sundays and we would eat it during the week. Good memory! Thanks for posting that. Can’t remember if his chili had beans or not.
