Any of you make your own gumbo, this was the first time for me and it turned out great I’m very happy with it. It is a shrimp, chicken and andouille sausage gumbo, I did not know it was going to take 1hr for the reddish brown roux to come together but well worth it.

That looks delicious! Gumbo is something I've always wanted to make. Maybe once it cools off down here I'll give it a try.

Yeah, dark roux takes quite awhile to make but it's worthwhile.  Love me some gumbo! :thumb:

I'll admit that "looks" pretty good but that's the problem with it.  :green:

If you brought that down here, people would start laughing. Man, you got to ugly that sucker up. Get rid of that volcano in the middle, let a little drip down your chin, add a little sweat to your brow and then you'd fit right in.  :thumb:

Just kidding. I grew up with that stuff. But I was never a cook, just an eater!  :lol:
