Serve Campbells Gumbo Soup and claim it as mine.







































Just kidding. I have many bad habits, but none that would make anyone turn down my gumbo.

I put okra in mine. Nobody has ever complained. I didnt even know that was odd.

But I recently heard that my gumbo had vegetables floating in it and that was a no-go (trinity). He explained that competition judges dont want anything but meat, gravy, and rice. That really blew my mind but I wrote it off as I dont care for competition jambalaya either.

Never tried that, always boiled separate and then put them in.

I like using sausage with a heavy smoke, like Paul's or Teet's or Rod's or similar... some people don't care for it

If I'm making a chicken and sausage gumbo, it's going to have cleaned chicken hearts and gizzards in it. If people don't know, then they would never ask. I take all of the chewy membrane off of the gizzards and cut the very top of the heart off. Both are cut into very small pieces before adding into the gumbo.

We normally just gently crack them into the gumbo to end up with a poached egg feel. Even better in a red bean gumbo.

I add 1/2" cubed bologna to my chicken and sausage gumbo every Christmas. My Grandma always did so I do too.

What the f---!

I don't care if you use home made, or jarred, or oil-less, you gotta have roux to be a gumbo. Otherwise, you have soup.

I know gumbo is made with roux and without it, you can't have gumbo or the flavor of gumbo. Eat your day soup Ingrid
