Ingredients

1 medium onion diced
1 bell pepper diced
3 celery stalks diced
3 cloves garlic minced
1 pound dry red kidney beans
1 tsp salt or more to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp white pepper (optional)
1 tsp hot sauce (I used Texas Pete.)
1 tsp fresh thyme or ½ tsp dried thyme
2 leaves bay
7 cups water
1 pound chicken andouille sausage cut into thin slices
10 cups cooked rice

Instructions

Add all ingredients, except for sausage and rice to the Instant Pot.
Place the lid on, lock it, and set to manual high pressure for 28 minutes.
At the end of the 28 minutes, use the quick release method (release the valve).
When the Instant Pot is fully depressurized the pin will fall, and you can remove the lid.
Run the lid under cold water, and set aside. This will help the Instant Pot to re-seal.
Add the chicken andouille sausage, place the lid on and lock it.
