  • If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can use the quick soak method. Place the beans in a pot with enough water to cover them by 2 inches. Bring the water to a boil and let it boil for 2 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, cover it, and let it sit for 1 hour. Drain the beans and rinse them before using them in the recipe.
  • If you prefer a spicier dish, you can add more hot sauce or use a spicier sausage.
  • This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.
