My wife, who makes the best gumbo I have ever had in my life, uses half butter half oil for her fat.

if I'm feeling fancy (meaning if I have enough saved), I use half bacon grease. most of the time, it's canola, grapeseed, or whatever higher heat oil I have on hand. just gotta crank the vent and open the windows because I do it on high heat
