Dirty Rice tips

Brown your ground pork, when it's almost done add a tub of Guidry's seasoning mix, sauté until veggies are translucent, add the tub of Savoie's, bring to a boil and simmer for ~20 minutes. I usually add a cup of chicken broth give or take because I like it kind of wet (yeah, that's what she said). Stir in your cooked rice. Generally no extra seasoning needed.

I've always called it dirty rice

I was born in Dallas though

Sure. Just be sure to adjust quantities of liquid to keep the ratio right. You don't want to add so much roux that it over powers it but enough to give it a small amount of flavor. Its much easier to add the roux in small quantities than add to much and try to repair the damage.

Lived in LA most of life and never, ever heard dirty rice called rice dressing. Must be a NOLA thing, sounds like "Yat" talk.

They call it dirty rice in the city. Growing up on the bayou it was always called rice dressing.
