I heard 2 different things
One person told me to throw the premade roux in a pot of water and let it cook down
Another told me to put all the roux by itself and slowly add water
Which is best ?

I cannot attest as ive never used it from a jar. my mom uses jar roux sometimes and it comes out just fine, not sure how she does it though
ETA:
when i make roux, i get the stock to a boil and add it (the roux) in, im sure using it from a jar should be very similar if not the exact same method

There are directions (and a full gumbo recipe I'm sure) on the jar that are pretty straight forward. Just follow those and you will be fine for a simple / easy good but no frills gumbo. I'd start there. Then, if you want to make it even better, use one of the many recipes posted on this site...just about all of them will yield very good results.

Pot of water boiling. Add roux to that. It dissolves much quicker.
