made my first gumbo last night

ive never made it because my grandmother or aunt would always make a bunch and i just never needed to.

i took the leftover turkey from my parents house for xmas. this is basically what i did. let me know if i need to change something up. it tastes really good and was surprised it came out so well. although my friend who told me what to do literally said its hard to mess up gumbo. he is a good cook and makes a very good gumbo so i decided to give it a try.

1.Started off by boiling the turkey bones and turkey meat in a mixture of chicken stock and water.
2. After about 45 minutes I added the roux
3. I let it boil for another 20 minutes or so and took the bones out and scraped off the turkey and put it back in the pot.
4. While i was doing that i had some sausage frying on the stove. I added the celery, peppers, onions etc to the frying pan after the sausage was almost done. Iput in about 4 tablespoons of garlic in the pan for the last 2 minutes.
5. Lowered the main pot to medium to low heat and dumped everything from the pan into the pot.
6. I let this cook for about an hour and a half



i forgot to add in chicken when i was doing all this so i boiled some chicken in a separate pot real quick and added it in when all the veggies were being put in.

any tips on my next gumbo?
