Ragin' Cajun Red Beans

Ragin’ Cajun Red Beans: A New Orleans Soul with a Kentucky Cure

If there is one dish that truly understands the power of a Broadbent smokehouse, it’s a pot of slow-simmered Red Beans. We’ve brought in Ragin’ Cajun Red Beans because they provide the perfect creamy canvas for our bold, aged pork flavors.

While traditionally a Monday staple in Louisiana, these beans become a world-class meal any day of the week when you introduce them to our heritage-cured meats. The natural earthiness of the red beans thrives when paired with the salty, hickory-smoked intensity we’ve been perfecting in Kentucky for over a century.

Make Them "Broadbent Style"

To get that deep, restaurant-quality "liquor" in your bean pot, we recommend blending these with our signature cuts:

• The Smoky Base: Start your pot with a 1 lb pack of our Country Ham Skins. As they simmer with the Ragin’ Cajun spices, they release the collagen and smoky saltiness that turn a simple bean into a rich, velvety masterpiece.

• The Hearty Addition: For the ultimate "Red Beans & Rice," dice up a thick slab of our Heritage Country Ham. The lean, savory meat holds up beautifully during the long simmer, absorbing the Cajun spices while lending its own aged "funk" to the dish.

• The Bacon Finish: Crisp up some Broadbent Smoked Bacon to crumble on top right before serving for an extra layer of crunch and smoke.

Product Highlights

• Creamy Texture: These red beans are selected for their ability to break down slightly, creating that classic thick gravy.

• Signature Spice: Pre-seasoned with a traditional Cajun profile that offers a gentle heat to balance our salty hams.

• Broadbent Approved: We don’t just sell these; we cook them in our own kitchens.

Classic comfort meets Kentucky tradition. Grab a bag and start the pot.
