I also won the BBQ cook off at Contraband days in ribs 2 years in a row and wild game and seafood divisions one year on the Harrah's team. I am from the Welsh Lake Arthur area so I am a local boy. I have cooked more gumbos in 90 gallon pots in a year than most of yall will ever cook in a life time....lol. If yall want a non bias judge that knows gumbo let me know.

Damn Saute! I think you should enter your own gumbo, then judge!

My competition days are over. I have no problem cooking some ribs. Hey just make sure this doesn't happen during the white perch spawn unless forecast for rain. I can make gumbo in an hour after making the rouix and you would swear it was cooked yesterday. It is an old French technique I learned from French master chef Fernando Oca he was Brennan's chef that opened Commander's Palace back in the old days. The rouix takes hours to make and is usually made in advance.

Whoa! You can't be saying that without sharing! I love to spend an entire afternoon cooking gumbo, watching the ball games and drinking, but if you have some secret shortcuts that don't hinder the flavor I'd love to know!

[mr crab]

Pretty sure those type of cooking secrets are to be sold...not told?

I would think Most Cajun guys could BEAT a "Texan" in a Gumbo cooking contest with a 2 yr old JAR Roux in a straight up contest. IE .. Everyone cook same ingredients.

I'll be your "HUCKLEBERRY" if I'm not working.

Come get some. I just wanna hang, cook, drank, and talk smack. Idc about any of the rest of it.

We can't even get someone to set a date and place, you actually think anyone will be there? I'd set it up but I ain't going through all the work of convincing a venue and coordinating so just you and me can drink together. I'll just go meet you on your end and we can do that without all the headache!

Spicers works for me

The spot is here today competing against 58 teams with over 70 gumbos today. Nothing like the smell of roux in the morning. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1422713789.750081.jpg

You can cook your roux ahead of time here. Just cooking the gumbo in the stock pot
