4: Stir in the creole seasoning, adobo seasoning, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
5: Pour in the chicken bone broth and bring to a simmer.
6: Cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender and the mixture is thick.
7: Stir in the unsalted butter until melted and well combined.
8: Serve hot with rice.
