[quote]Thats interesting. I'll try that. Thats why I like posting these type things. So many good ideas to make good jambs great.[/quote
I think that is one thing that makes our food so great. It seems like most guys are very open minded to trying something new.

That's true. From what I've seen, there is no ONE correct way to cook "cajun" foods.

Kim Leblanc's seasoning is all you need. 5lbs of rice=1 can of his seasoning. It doesn't hurt to mix the yellow and purple can together.

I missed that.. I was thinking Leblancs grocery ground seasonings was what he was referring to. There is a Jambalaya seasoning mix they make in a can?

I am suddenly craving a big bowl of jambalaya and a jack on the rocks outside of Tiger Stadium before a big game!

No Catman. This mix is made in St.Amant by Kim LeBlanc. No relation to the LeBlanc food stores. This stuff is sold in our area only as far as I know. I buy it in 1 gallon jugs for $10 bucks. Can't beat it. Best tasting stuff I have cooked with IMO.

Kim is a man.

In fact I think he won the Jambalaya Festival one year.

Not that i'm aware of. I know all the grocery stores in Gonzales have it. Murray's in St.Amant sells it by the gallon. 10 or 11 bucks per gallon. Kim's boudin shop is just a block down the street behind Triple S grocery.

Kim makes boudin, crawfish boudin and sausage. Also has a new line of fish fry and shrimp vegetable fry mixes. Tried all and I use them regularly.

pochejp, after looking at the pics. I decided I wanted to cook a mini-pot jam last Sat night. It had been a while and I needed a refresher. I basically tried it like you cooked your and it came out awesome.
Only problem was I drank too much and my family ate it all before I decided to fix me some before bed. Had some blue runner red beans to go with it. Broke my heart.
Regardless, good stuff and Thanks.

Glad it worked out for you and your family enjoyed it.

I often indulge too much myself whilst cooking Jambs for some odd reason. They just go together.

Very well done as only a Gonzillion could do.

Only thing is: If you cooked that in my house my wife would beat you with the cast iron lid if you got her stovetop that dirty. She'd be 409ing at the first splatter or boil over.
