re: Paprika in C&S Gumbo?

I'm a bit scarred from file as one of the first times making gumbo I added too much, and well I'm sure you all can guess how that ended. Only add to individual bowls since......

Thank you for this - will pivot a bit to what is posted here on the next batch and give it a shot :). Thank you to all for the responses, and happy holidays!...

Yes, I think the roux is dark enough and I use garlic. So it sounds like you use a very minimal amount of seasonings.... I ended up with the thyme, basil, and bay leaves simply following what seemed like a good recipe. But this post has me wondering if instead of missing something I am try...

Paprika in C&S Gumbo?

Posted by HoustonsTiger on 12/27/23 at 12:52 pm
For the last few years I have been using a recipe that I had in a cookbook (I believe it is Paul Prudhomme) for gumbo. I think it comes out pretty good, but not great. After having a few bowls of gumbo lately at a few different places I feel like my gumbo's seasoning is just missing a little somethi...
I would definitely take it based on what you posted: - you are no closer to the job you want after 2 years on the road you are on - this one has potential for that job, or a lot a minimum trains you for it. Even if after 6 months you get let go (although I would work like hell to make sure...

A lot of good replies... For the Manda folks - the pork or the andouille?...

Not sure if it has been listed, but we have a pull out drawer that has room / rack for 2x 13 gallon garbage cans. Can use one for recycling, or both for trash. Either way its 2x garbage cans that take up the place of one cabinet, is aesthetically pleasing, reduces any funky smell from trash and is j...

Fair enough. Both my wife and I both really enjoy scary movies and neither of us had heard of this one, hence the assumption of under the radar. Any other movies you would recommend?...

Hell House LLC

Stumbled on this horror movie 'Hell House LLC' the other day and watched it last night. Was a great concept and for the most part pretty enjoyable. Found myself on the edge of my seat quite a bit. Was one of the better horror / scary movies I remember seeing in quite some time. Had me wondering how ...
Correct, I was really trying to understand how Black Jack boots compare in terms of comfort and durability. Apparently its a bunch of Lucchese employees that spun off to start their own line. Thanks to all for the feedback....
Anyone have an opinion / recommendations one way or another? ...

re: Do you know your neighbors?

Posted by HoustonsTiger on 11/18/19 at 3:15 pm
An introduction (to me) has a lot of upside and very little downside. I suppose they can become overly intrusive, but it's always nice to know who is around you. For example, my neighbor is a car mechanic by trade and loves whisky. He has showed me more about cars in 2 years than I knew in the 33...

Loyalty is more than just not fooling around. It's being loyal in the bad, tough times. Having faith in you and your decisions for the family. Trusting there will be light at the end of the tunnel. If you married strictly for physical appearance I think you had your priorities out of wack, but to...
