ice bath, then store in fridge


ftw, only way to do this unless it's cold outside and you can set it out there for a while...but ice bath is defnitely the fastest way to do this.

Plus, afterwards you'll have fresh ice again in your refrigerator (bonus - you get to hear ice make and drop all night too )

You can put it in the fridge hot as long as it isn't covered!

sitting it outside during this fairly cool weather would be better than leaving it inside just sitting.

Put some ice in a cooler and later after your pot cools off, just sit it in the cooler if frigerator room is the problem..

I just leave it on the stove overnight because I'm not a pussy. Put in fridge in the morning.

I wouldn't do it. But, if you do it and you bring it back to a boiling simmer and keep it at that for a while before serving, chances are you will kill anything in there that might harm anyone.

Again, I wouldn't do it, though.

Just go ahead and put it in bowls and leave it on the table till your guests come over tonight. That way, all your work will be done ahead of time and you won't have to worry about doing anything right before they get there.

Oh, and on the chicken, you want it to be pink in the middle. It is juicier that way.


Seriously, though? You can't leave stuff out all night. And, keeping it on 200 degrees all night just breaks everything in the gumbo down, doesn't it? Have you added the seafood yet? If so, is it complete mush?
