Im going to my in-laws out of state for the holiday, what is the best way to transport some gumbo I want to make beforehand? secure it in an ice chest and check it? Ive never flown or shipped for, tbh. IT's a short trip, about 1:30hr
Freeze it.
Either overnight it or check it in a Yeti-style cooler.

I make the gumbo ahead, pack the gumbo in a Tupperware container, tape it closed and wrap it in sealed plastic, for extra security during shipping.. bubble wrap it and pack in dry ice and overnight it.
It's expensive but you don't have to deal with toting the gumbo through the airport and baggage claim, etc. It'll be waiting for you when you arrive, and will hopefully be refrigerated by the recipient.
Doing it ahead, allows you to relax and enjoy your time off, instead of cooking and washing pots your whole vacation.
