You can't cook jambalaya for 40-50 people?

Don't recall their jamb but they do a solid job. Wish they were still on Vets.

Actually, I find it's much easier to cook a full batch in a 20 gallon pot than a 12 quart dutch oven

Much easier to cook in bulk.

Scaling up a recipe is easy, scaling down one is a bitch and a big trial and error job.

I also think cooking in a round bottom vs flat bottom has a lot to do with it

Yep. it's easier to move the bottom around, faster to heat up that sweet spot, and easier to keep flipping and cutting your jambo vs leaving ruts in the flat bottom.

Jambo, you ever cook in any of the larger jambo cook-offs around the area?
