Post 507 was almost as good as your 500th NSFW post

Looks like a typical Creole jambalaya to me. I would eat.
God help you if you put tomato in a gumbo, though.

I'll keep that in mind.

That looks horrible. You should definitely send it to my house so I can see that it is properly disposed of!!
I love smoked pork shoulder in jambalaya. I'll be trying bacon next. I can't imagine it not being great. To be honest, I have yet to find something that bacon doesn't improve (within reason).

The bacon made the biggest taste difference. Other than that it was pretty similar. However, I really liked the flavor that the bacon added. I will probably continue using it.
I put bacon in my a lot of my jambos, and I'm from gonzales It's not traditional but I love bacon and pretty much put it in everything I eat

Tomatoes do not belong in jambalaya or gumbo.

I would eat until I couldn't anymore. Then I'd take a nap, walk around the room a few times, and do it again.

Drain the bacon fat or leave it in?

Looks good, kind of looks like a Spanish dish.

looks very good, what the story behind the bacon? I like it, never had it that way.
I do not believe this to be true, it may not be authentic per south louisianians, but I do it and like it.

I cook bacon or sausage first every time i cook a jambalaya. Then pretty much do what you did minus tomatoes. Tomatoes don't belong in a jambalaya but to each his own. Kinda like using cream of celery and mushroom soup in one.

I have an etouffee recipe from an old room mate from Texas that uses cream of mushroom as the thickening agent instead of making a roux or using an instant roux. Not the worst bastardised south Louisiana dish I've ever had.

I hate tomatoes, but somehow don't mind them if cooked. I may try this just to see.

I had a friend who did this also and I thought it was pretty damn good. If it taste good, it taste good. Whether or not it the "right" way to do it or not, I could careless as long as it made my belly happy.

I cook the bacon first and let the fat help cook the pork and sausage. If there's a ton of grease, I usually skim a little of the top after I add my broth
