So, a Gator fan, me, tried his hand at making the Cajun Ninja’s gumbo...

I'm not sure I've ever had chicken, sausage, AND shrimp gumbo, but it looks fine to me

How was it?

My main critique would be to brown that sausage more next time

Not the worst I’ve ever seen. Not a fan of shrimp with C&S but if it tasted good what the hell

I like it. I wasn’t sure about the shrimp, but I tried it anyway. It’s not bad. At least to me.

Do you guys usually save the extra soup and use it in the next gumbo? Freeze it I mean?

Looks better than that stuff i had at a Gainesville tailgate a few years ago!

More roux and darker roux. No surf n turf in gumbo. Nice first try!



Where's your tater salad baw?

By “use it in the next” do you mean leftovers? If so yes absolutely gumbo makes for great frozen leftovers. If you mean like a “starter” then no not really

I like a shrimp, chicken and sausage gumbo. I would use more roux and you should consider browning your sausage some.

Cook your okra down with the trinity in the roux.

Your chop is too large. Trinity should be diced. Roux should be darker. And you need Tasso and andouille. Years ago, my Creole maid told me to add shrimp to my chicken and sausage gumbo. Best advice that thieving count gave me.

Veggies need to be cooked down more .. shrimp is ok even tho I don’t use it in that type of gumbo. Cook down sausage first.

Not bad, IWEI

Question:

Should a good gumbo be more like a soup (watery) or thick like a stew?
