pork was bad. I was spewing out both ends for about a week. Couldn't eat Christmas dinner, and on the drive to my New Mexico ski trip stopped at pretty much every rest stop across all 895 miles of I-10 in Texas. There were several employees hospitalized for dehydration,
Merry freaking Christmas!

If everything is fully cooked the chances of it getting bad after is slim. Yall eva heard the nursery rime peas porrage hot peas porrage cold peas porrige in da pot 9 days old? Das da way folks usta roll. While camping da wife made a big pot o soup. we ate on it 3 days just bringing it to a simmer every evening. When traveling we kept the p[ot in the camper sink. It's a good way to not hafta cook every day and the soup kept gettin mo betta on the third day not much left we stretched it with mo watta and a pack of weenies we aint got sick.

While possible, this is very diffcult to pull off with Salmonella. Especially in a large batch. Salmonella is a fairly fraigle organism that needs a respectable infectious dose to cause widespread disease like this. On the order of 10000+ bacterium consumed.
Not much, but with a pot this big we are talking more than dirty hands with smeared shite on them.
My guess is with the chicken being undercooked somehow.
Complicating factor if the food was allowed to sit in warm temps for more than six hours or so before being served.

Yeah, and life expectancy was also half of what it is today.

Do you actually speak this way?

I'm no expert, but I know some pathogens (like botulism) can be killed by the cooking, but the toxins they've already producer are not destroyed. I wonder if the jambalaya was cooked properly, but the ingredients had the toxins still in them. I don't know if salmonella works that way, I'm just wondering - I'd hate to be the guy responsible for this.

No, both organisms involved in this requires live consumption.

The endotoxins from gram negative bacteria don’t degrade at normal cooking temps. So if you cook with chicken that’s been left out and has salmonella, even if you cook it to well past the done temp, you can still get sick from the residual toxins from the bacteria.

The detection of Clostrudium perfringens explains a lot. The rapid onset of symptoms are characteristically associated with toxic-mediated infection. Salmonella can take 12-72 hours to incubate and show symptoms which is why I originally thought Bacillus cereus.

That's enough to stop me from donating to any more jambalaya fundraisers

You are incorrect.
Endotoxins are not universally heat stable, and while Salmonella has them, they are not of the heat stable variety. The primary organisms of concern that produce heat stable toxins are S. aureus and certain strains of E. coli.
BTW, S. aureus is gram positive.
In general, you have more problems with dealing with spore producing organisms than dealing with extant toxins that exist even after a heat treatment step. In non commerical use, you can ignore it unless you excessively temperature abuse food. I'm talking leaving it out all day at room temperature, putting it in the fridge, and taking it out for more kind of things.

I am hearing similar...cooked on Wednesday and served on Sunday...which would be fine if done properly but it was not

That I don't have a good answer for without knowing specifics.
Maybe they rushed and put large chunks in late before lowering the heat and letting it simmer.
That plus temperature abuse is going to be on the list.
This is going to be a batch they cooked day(s) in advance and was mishandled in that time.
