Had a big lunch at Olive Street Bistro with son. So just nibbling for dinner. Wife had leftover pasta and grilled Italian sausage. Bought andouille and chicken for a gumbo tomorrow.

Otis, how did that gumbo turn out? I've never done it with "mixed method chicken", so I'm curious.

Very good. I'll post the recipe we worked up, but it's very large. As to the point of your question, if you way the time to prep chicken in more than one style(boiling, browning/frying, or roasting) for a gumbo, jambalaya, or sauce picante, I always like to do this. You're gonna get a better depth of flavor and different textures.

Thanks. Could you distinguish the flavor of the roux made with the frying oil and the chicken with the fried crust? Did you fry the chicken with the skin on or off? I take it off.

I usually make about 6-7 gallons at a time. Not nearly as much as you, but I can break down the measurements in your recipe, I'm sure. I'd like to have it.

Did one with each(frying oil and fresh), and then combined. It was good. I made so much roux, I didn't have enough oil left after the frying, hence I did it both ways.

Off. Don't like greasy gumbo, and I didn't want skin floating on top.

I agree. I don't like skin on the chicken for gumbo. Yuck.

Same here.
And as for gallons, I only make 2 or 3. I don't have the freezer space.
