Red Beans & Rice

What is it?

Slow-cooked red beans sit over seasoned rice in this Popeyes side, a Louisiana-style combo served daily rather than just on Mondays. The beans cook down soft and creamy, with onion, garlic, pepper, and a smoky pork note in the background, while the rice is seasoned in broth instead of left plain. Available in regular or large sizes, it shows up as a side or in some combo meals. Compared with other sides in the Popeyes lineup, it’s the one that leans most directly into regional New Orleans cooking, with a thicker, stew-like texture than a simple bean-and-rice bowl.
