hey outdoor cheif. thanks for being the only one to respond. i am over my head and yes we are selling bulk to the public. the smoker is directly in front of the store on a busy road, so the business has at least tripled. we are going through about a 100 pounds of pork, beef, and chicken a day. thing is, my employee is from up north and i really don't think the rub is very good. now again thanks and i will visit the to aforementioned sites, and please send me your gumbo recipie and any other cajun ideas. these yanks flock to it like flys on shite. man i apreach, The Woodpecker

I have a large gumbo recipe in the Recipe Thread above. It's proportions are good and it works well. You might give it a look as a guide.

As for as rubs go, on chicken and pork, I like to just use a Cajun seasoning blend like Tony's, Slap Yo Momma, etc. For brisket, try this...for each 12 to 15 lb packer trimmed brisket, rub it with a mix of 2 cups brown sugar , 3 T Tonys, 1 T dry mustard and 1/2 T garlic powder. Smoke as usual....makes an awesome bark.

Prep. Combine the Tony's, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, granulated garlic, Wyler's granules and parsley flakes in a measuring cup and mix well. Have your diced onions, sliced andouille and cut up chicken pieces readily available. Have your oil, flour and water pre measured and readily available. Have a bottle of Kitchen Bouquet handy and a measuring spoon nearby.
1. On high heat, sauté the diced onions in oil for five minutes. Stir often to prevent onions from burning.
2. Add the andouille. Sauté for five more minutes and again, stir often to prevent burning or scorching.
3. Now add the chicken pieces, then add your blended seasonings to the pot. Continue to sauté for 5 more minutes, stir often.
4. Add the Shake and Blend flour and continue to stir for one minute to insure that the flour is incorporated into your mixture.
5. Add the water and stir your gumbo to loosen all ingredients that may be sticking to the bottom of the pot.
6. It will take about five minutes for your gumbo to come to a boil. As you near the boiling point, add the Kitchen Bouquet & stir to blend throughout your gumbo.
7. Allow your gumbo to boil for about 15 minutes, then, reduce heat.
8. Simmer your gumbo for about 15 minutes and skim any oil that accumulates on the surface.
9. TIME TO EAT!
