Instructions:

  • Heat oil in a large pot until hot (a small piece of meat dropped into the oil should sizzle), then add pork or chicken, stirring until browned.
  • Add sausages; stir until browned. Add onions, celery and bell pepper and continue stirring.
  • Once all ingredients are cooked through, add garlic, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add beer, Kitchen Bouquet and salt to taste, then bring to a rolling boil and add rice.
  • Lower pot to medium heat. Stir continuously so rice doesn't burn, then bring to a slow boil
  • Stir for 3 to 5 minutes, then turn off fire. Cover pot and keep lidded for 30 to 60 minutes or until rice is cooked through. Serve.
