Good Jambalaya Recipe?
Posted on 1/4/18 at 1:36 pm

Sup baws,
I moved to Seattle a few years ago and occasionally like to make Louisiana foods for my friends and co-workers to help them realize how bland and flavorless their food is. I make gumbo most often, but want to make jambalaya next. Problem is I don't have a very good authentic recipe. If someone could point me in the direction of a recipe they trust I would very much appreciate it!

this one is simple and easy without using tony sacheree and cajun bobs spices BS
Ingredients:
• 2-3 lb boston butt
• 1-1 1/2 lb (4 links) smoked sausage (cut 1/4" thick slices then cut in half)
• 3-4 large yellow onions (chopped) (about 2-3 cups)
• 2 large green bell pepper (chopped)
• 3 heaping tablespoons minced garlic
• 1 regular can brown beef gravy
• 1 regular 15 oz can chopped / diced tomatoes (with juices)
• 1 regular 15 oz can chopped mushrooms pieces (without juices)
• 1 regular 8 oz can tomato sauce (not the paste)
• 3 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
• 4 level teaspoon Salt
• 3 level teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cups long grain white rice (2 lb bag)
• 5 cups water
• 2-3 teaspoons Kitchen bouquet (just for color)
• all purpose flour (for roux)
Directions:
in a large pot cover the bottom with aluminum foil. take the boston butt and cut it into fist sized sections and then season on all sides with salt, pepper, and rub it all over evenly on all sides then bake in a pre-heated oven @ 400 degrees for 1 hour.
remove pork and foil from the pot and cut up all of the pork in bite sized chunks discarding as much fat as you can. use the grease drippings you left in the pot and make a roux with it. when the roux is done add the onions, garlic, bell pepper, seasonings, worcestershire sauce, kitchen bouquet, and water, then bring it to a slow boil and cook until onions turn clear.
now add in the can goods (tomatoes, tomato sauce, gravy, mushrooms) and cook for 10 minutes then add the meat into the pot and cook that for 10 more minutes to merge flavors.
Now add the rice and reduce to medium heat and stir constantly to prevent sticking. when all the water is gone (you can see the dry bottom when jambalaya is pulled to the side with spoon) then cover the pot and put it into a preheated oven @ 350 degrees for 45 minutes and then It's ready to eat.
i make this using a magnalite roasting pot like this one and this recipe makes it full up to the rim LINK

That's a very different jambalaya recipe.

Just get a bag of Oak Grove Jambalaya mix and add good smoked sausage and chicken and call it a day.
eta: Dont do this if you plan on cooking for a large party or something. If you're looking for something quicker you do on the stove and can feed a handful of mouths with, do this.

I thought maybe it was a Natchitoches version like the red bean recipe.

CJ's mix is good but pricey

Not sure what you are talking about. I have friends and relatives in St James parish and they all cook great jambalaya.
I’ve never had any that had ingredients like that recipe.

The jambalaya calculator uses the best jamb recipe ever posted here imo. It's legit, fairly inexpensive ingredients, and not very difficult. I use Tony's instead of it's recommended seasoning.
Just make sure you use a cast iron Dutch oven.
