Fresh Andouille

I love andouille, and I’ve chewed my way through a porky passel of these meaty delights, throughout Cajun country and beyond. And now that my unparalleled sausage street-cred has been established, I’ll just say, this is another of Esposito’s finest. It’s an outstanding sausage with red beans and rice. These andouille are large and fresh and tasty (which is the perfect sausage trifecta, I believe). They aren’t as spicy or as hot and smoky as some andouille, but they are packed with flavor that won’t overpower a dish. It’s easy to add a little more heat if you want, but I think these are pretty great as is. That said, I wouldn’t mind terribly if Esposito’s offered a second variety of andouille that was a skosh more smoky and hot. Sometimes you just need the extra mojo.

If you want to make the best red beans and rice... If you want to make the best red beans and rice order this sausage. 'Nuff said!
