First I got to make the roux. Bacon fat and AP flour.
After several hours of love, skrimps, sausage, chikon, and vege-tables with lots of flavor.

Looks like it needs some okra.
I made a big ol' pot the other day and freeze dried the leftovers. Think I'll have some for dinner.

I wanted to put okra in it, but Micheal overrode me.

Question: how do you cook the shrimp for a long time without it getting rubbery?

Mars, just so you know, there's no "it" on the end of that expression, which was popularized by Justin Wilson.

You’ve got me wondering… Which expression?
Ah. Maybe his tag line?

[QUOTE]Originally posted by PASig: I love the reference to Justin Wilson ^^^^^^^^^^^^ I knew Mr. Justin Wilson personally. He was one of a kind. When people would ask him why he wore a belt and suspenders together he would reply that since he had been a safety engineer for years he was just hedging to keep his pants up if the belt broke. ............ and on his cooking shows if the recipie called for some type of wine he made sure the cook got a sample in a glass.... Eventhough he was a yankee from the frozen north we adopted him as Cajun here in south Louisiana. .......................... drill sgt.

Yeah, I hadn't heard Justin in many, many years.
Now Tabitha's cousin that lived with us while he got his trucking CDL is 100% coon ass and speaks Cajun. You can barely understand a word he says, but he is a wonderfully jovial person. He will keep you in stitches with his bayou wit. This is more of a shout out to him.
His favorite saying is lookahear. As in "lookahear, you got some boudain" in an coon ass accent you can hardly understand?
