Dirty Rice Recipe
Posted on 5/4/18 at 6:40 am

I have been craving a good dirty rice recipe. Popeye’s was my first time ever having this dish 40 or so years ago. I know this is not the best or was ever the best but, as a kid it was awesome. I want to find a good DR recipe to add to my kitchen. The other day my son came home with popeye’s DR and I had to take a bite. I almost spit it out as it had zero flavor, I mean ZERO!
Anyone have a good recipe that they are willing to share that would be how I remembered DR or better? Also is Popeyes DR considered more of a New Orleans style or Cajun style?
Finally, Once I make dirty rice and I want to add eggplant is it the same recipe plus eggplant or is this a all different recipe?

Whatever you make it has to have chicken liver in it.

I was hoping for a tried and true recipe that can be vouched for. I have been looking at different recipes online and in cook books, trying to get something that is perfected without toying around with a recipe.

The Link one is good.

I like gizzards and hearts chopped up in it too but have so slip in since my wife isn’t a fan.

Yep. My wife will not eat any dirty rice. Liver hater. Eats boudin but not if it’s old school with up front liver taste.

Eggplant dirty rice
Had that first tme year ago around a campfire in Opelousas. I just add it in after cooking both down.Posted on 5/4/18 at 10:22 am to Martini
The original popeye’s locally used to sell fried livers and gizzards on their menu. I wonder if they used it in the DR recipe?

I found this one and want to make. It sounds and looks like a decent recipe...Like my Mom use to make.

If you can, go to Maurice, La to a place called Hebert's meat market. Buy some of their ready to go mix and a pound of ground pork. When you get home, chop up an onion and add to mixture of pork and dressing mix. Simmer slowly 30 minutes. Then add chopped green onion and rice. Turn off heat, cover, let stand 15 minutes.
outstanding rice dressing.

Isaac Toups's recipe is very good. He uses ground pork and ground brisket. I like to follow his but add liver/hearts to the meat ratio and then diced up hogs head cheese at the end. The hogs head essentially melts into the rice. It is good stuff.
Pro tip I learned from this board - make your rice the night before and refrigerate so it cools completely and keeps its form instead of becoming mush.

I’ve only made Donald Links recipe before, but it turned out great. It was a hit even with people that would “never” eat livers.

Athis, I have seen this one. My only issue is that it uses Jimmy Dean sausage, was looking to do something from scratch.

3lbs ground pork
3lbs ground beef
1lb of ground chicken liver, gizzard and hearts
1 1/2 lbs chopped onion
1 lb chopped shallots
3 bell peppers diced fine
6 stalks celery diced fine
6 cloves garlic diced fine
1 bunch green onions chopped fine
1/2 bunch parsley chopped fine
Brown all of you meat take it out it out and cook your vegetables till the onions and shallot are past clear then add your garlic and cook it till you can smell the garlic. Then add 1/2 the green onions, 1/2 of the parsley and the meat back to the pot. Cook it for about 30-40 minutes. Right at the end add the rest of the green onions and parsley.
Mix with rice that's been left in the fridge over night till you get it the consistency you want. It's make a lot but you can freeze the left overs in a Ziploc. It freezes pretty good.
Just guessing but I would say 1 cup of raw rice to a pound of the mixture.

Trying to be low low carb I might have to try subbing eggpant for rice and having stuffed eggplant.

Looks excellent. What are your choice of spices, salt, black and red pepper to taste?
Posted on 5/4/18 at 3:43 pm to OTIS2
I put it in the recipe thread.
