For a deeper, smokier flavor, consider using andouille sausage. Soaking the kidney beans overnight can reduce cooking time and improve digestibility. Adjust the amount of water depending on your desired consistency. Add more water if the beans become too thick during cooking. If you like a thicker consistency, mash some of the beans against the side of the slow cooker before serving.
