In a few hours, myself and a buddy will be headed to Orlando florida for the cookoff Boodreaux posted a while back.

Driving there, staying the night, cooking our asses off, then driving straight home for Church sunday morning.

I'm pretty pumped to show em how LSU and Louisiana can't be messed with when it comes to gumbo.

Anyone else going to be the in the area and want to come by? We've got plenty of food, and plenty of beer.

And check your trailer closely...I'm betting GG is stowed away in a big pot or ice chest.

how in the F are judges from Florida gonna be allowed to judge this


Louisiana IS the authority on Gumbo....I don't think anyone from anywhere else should be allowed to say what is good and what isn't

Remember to hold off on adding tomatoes until flame out.

If you use andouille, just call it sausage. They'll think it's some sort of innards sausage. No okra. They won't understand that. My suggestions.

Don't expect much from Florida judges. I competed in a gumbo cook-off in north Alabama and my gumbo took 4th. The dishes that finished in the top 3 weren't anything close to gumbo. The votes that I did get were from restaurant cooks/owners. The other rednecks voted for the seafood soups. And one dish that had so much file powder in it, that's all you could taste.

I won't make that mistake again.

A little bit like that except the juice was lighter and completely covered the other ingredients. It was literally a shrimp soup.
