Brown rice for Jambalya?

Wondering if this is a no go. Trying to get rid of some brown rice in my pantry and was wondering if the result would be drastically different/worse than using white rice. Doing a Gonzales style w/ chicken and sausage in a Dutch oven on the stove fwiw.

Brown rice cooks so differently than white rice that I expect this ends with lots of pain and disappointment.

One of those things that sounds good, but just does not work, save yourself the trouble and just cook the rice and serve it with pork and sausage on the side

I've done it a couple of times. So inconsistent. Throw the 40 mins out of the window. It take at least 1:15 for the rice to cook and it still is undercooked in spots.

I've used basmati rice and it was great.

That sounds interesting. If you do make it be sure to post the results.

Did you have to adjust the time or amount of liquid when you used basmati rice?

Thanks for the replies. Ended up needing to run to the story for some bouillon and onion anyway, so just got some white rice.

I've wanted to try quinoa. Cooking time and water ratio is similar to rice.

You will need a lot more liquid than normal. For more info see this ATK video:

Thanks, good video that explains the science.

I've tried it. It's good, but definitely cut down the salt and seasoning ... them little sh!ts soak up every little bit of what's in there, and it overpowered the quinoa way more than as if I had used rice.
As for the ratio, I just used the same 2:1 ratio as if I was doing a small stove top batch of traditional jamb.
