It adds up quick:

Chicken
4 hens at about $9 each. $36

sausage
Savoies andouille at about $6 a pound, 6 pounds. $36.

tasso
No, bruh. Just no.

eggs
You can get 60 for $6

onions, peppers
Even if I add celery, under $15.
quote:
chicken stock
Use base. 4 a jar, $8.
quote:
rice
Five pounds for $5.
That's $106 for the gumbo.

rice, cups, utensils, drinks, napkins, seasoning, hot sauce & propane
Even if I throw beer in here, maybe $150.
Still no way you can get to $500 unless you are going very high end on the beer.

I overestimated it. $150 to $200 is about right

That sounds much closer. I think you could do it for about $200 yourself. Catered is going to be a lot steeper.

Can someone give a round a bout price for a gumbo for 50 people. Just the gumbo. Nothing else
What kind of gumbo? Seafood is considerably more expensive than others.

My thought too, but I didn't want to respond, "What kind of gumbo?" You are 100% correct, Seafood will be much more expensive. I don't make seafood for anyone unles I really like them.
Want to come over?

I have actually never made seafood gumbo before and it almost intimidates me to try.

I admit I am kind of a gumbo novice so when are you adding eggs to a gumbo?

Towards the end while with a low boil. The eggs will cook almost instantly as they are dropped in. They look like oysters

Make a chicken and sausage gumbo minus the chicken and sausage. At the end add shrimp and crabmeat in lieu of.
That’s the easiest route. If you want to make shrimp stock, add buster crabs etc...get tough with it but the above is just as good.

I don't think so.

No one that calls for savoie sausage in a gumbo and then instantly shits on tasso should be respected as a cook. 
Posted on 12/9/20 at 10:01 am to CFC1905
What the hell does tasso have to do with Arkansas? Some of you baws think you cajun but you aint, cher. Just some plugs from Lafayette. Prolly like dat boudin wit no liver. Prolly breast yu ducks and don't eat pouldeau. Prolly think Don's is worth a frick.
