Is gumbo the ultimate cold weather food?
Absolutely

You obviously haven't been treated to a steaming bowl of legitimate pho.

Totally subjective choice:
Gumbo
Chili
Chicken and dumplings
Soup
Chowder
White Beans and ham
Turkey and dressing
Ham soup
Lasagna
Lots of stuff
Some folks might think Ice Cream and why would you want to start a knife fight with them just because your opinion is different from them.

I don't know. As far as soup type meals it's up there for me
In the soup category I'd also add in pozole, pho, cauliflower soup

to be honest, the the few gumbos I looked at in the TD cookbook are pretty underwhelming
In what way? A traditional gumbo doesn't have a whole lot of variation.
While on the topic, what does the FDB think of mixing seafood with meats? I don't do it, but this woman at my work was talking about the gumbo she had in her freezer and said, "We throw all the good stuff in it too. Chicken.. shrimp.. crab.. sausage.. pork.. "
I thought it was odd to combine the seafoods and meats.

Pretty hard to beat a good gumbo on a cold night

Last winter I swear we just ate gumbo, chili and either homemade tortilla, taco, or veggie soup
We got in a habit of cooking a ton on Sunday and just eating it throughout the week with a salad or sandwich.
So good!

Gumbo is great and stewed chicken is a close second on a cold day

I can't think of a better cold weather food

I prefer shucking and eating fresh, cold oysters right out of the sack on the back patio. With some Miller Lites.

Am I the only Louisianan that thinks gumbo is vastly overrated? I don't dislike it, but it's just kind of ok. I've always liked the creamy seafood bisques much more.

can't think of anything I'd rather have

Same here. It's also one of my favorites to cook. The smell in the house can be mouthwatering .

IMHO game ducks make gumbo very greasy and slimy
I've heard this before. What if you smoke the duck first, like i plan doing? Shouldn't the cooking action cause the fat to render off?

Maybe you just haven't had good gumbo? Are you basing it off what people cook or restaurants? Because there isn't a single restaurant's gumbo i'd rather have over my own.

In all fairness, it is mostly internet knife fights.

I love gumbo on a cold day but I just don't get the love for Pho. Maybe I got a bad bowl of it but it was very bland and pretty much seemed like a bowl of broth with a little noodles and a couple bits of beef. Was not a fan. What am I missing?
