    I had made Isaac Toups gumbo a few months back, and just as he said then "If you feel a lil brave, get that oil rocking hot." Mind you this was my first time making gumbo, or a roux, but I was feeling BRAVE, and burned it beyond recognition.

      The most fundamental concept in cooking to do with hot (in terms f temperature) food is that you need to let it cool down before eating, otherwise, you will not be able to taste everything properly, not to mention burning your tongue. How can I trust a dumbass who shovels piping hot results into his mouth?

    So I made this last night at my boyfriends because surprisingly he had everything but some celery. It turned out so good!!! I make gumbo all of the time but I’ve never made jambalaya before but it is a very similar process. It made together really fast. I have a 12inch cast iron skillet and I made everything it that. I love that it is a one pan dish as well. I added shrimp in mine and I cooked that hand and then the step where you add the butter, that’s when i folded in the shrimp as well. The only reason i did the shrimp separate was because i didnt want them to over cook. I didn’t follow the recipe to a T because I didnt measure everything out but I mostly just eyeballed everything to what i though he said, but again it came out AMAZING!!! Great easy simple recipe

Also, I was stunned at how good the gravy smelled after that one hour (or maybe 1:15) of simmering. Then you add the andouille and chicken ... holy cow. My kids (11 and 15) had never had this before and they loved it. Very, very glad I made it. Thank you for your help! Cook-on, Chef!

    I made this last night and it was so good. I never made Jambalaya before and was a bit skeptical of this recipe at first since every recipe I looked up had a lot of seasonings and this recipe didn't really use any. But I tried this recipe because is looked good and was very simple. Was a winner. So simple and delicious. Thanks for the video and recipe.

(Except i think Andouille and shrimp are the best proteins for it) but like he said, you can practically mix and match til your hearts content. Tasso and Oyster is also a majestic combination 😸 Super easy, few ingredients, delicious and awesome anytime of the year! 💪

      black roux... the roux for gumbo and jambalaya is a black roux. And he's right, you can't make it with unclarified butter because it will burn and leave a bad taste in the final product.
      You could clarify the butter and skim the milk fats and water. Then the butter has a higher smoke point, never tried this for black roux, though
