Alaskan Amber Beer Red Beans and Rice

1 lb Red beans; cooked
1/2 lb Ham; diced
1/2 lb Hot link sausages; diced
3 md Jalapeno chile pepper; diced fine
1 md Onion; diced
1 tb Creole seasoning
2 Bottles Alaskan Amber Beer
1/2 c Celery; diced
1/2 c Red bell pepper; diced

In a crockpot or a heavy 3 quart pan place all the ingredients except the beans to a boil and simmer for an hour or two. Add the beans and simmer for another hour or two. Mash a few of the beans with a spoon to thicken the liquid..

Do not use a creole seasoning made with salt. The sausage and ham provide salt, and more may be added at the table.

Add additional peppers if desired. Serve with rice.

A table of tomato paste may be added near the end of the cooking time.
