    It looks really good the way it is. The great thing about gumbo is it is so varied. I like to thicken mine with a roux, and or smothered okra. Also smoking the chicken adds a great flavor.

    Now I'm hungry.......
    Purlow, that is Carolina food. Here we make Jambalaya. Close to the same but with Cajun seasonings and no O'Bay. I've got friends near Charleston, they used to live off the road to Edisto Beach.

    People that use old bay don't know how to use seasoning.............................That's like using canned okra

    Well taken. It all depends what you ate growing up. No canned okra please, that can be used to grease your wheel bearings.

    Dark roux in this batch. Like I posted, also did the broth. After I peeled off the chicken, boiled the bones in the broth for a while as well for a rich flavor. Lots of vegies as you can probably tell. Onions, red bell peppers, sweet yellow and orange peppers, fresh garlic, celery, green onion tops, and parsley (cooked down with butter). Spices include black pepper, paprika, oregano, cayenne, thyme, Tony's (salt), Louisiana hot sauce, and Worchester sauce. Over the years I have found that the chicken thighs are best, for some reason the breasts don't work so well. This batch I used Richard's green onion sausage.

    I also prepare some hard boiled eggs, peel them, and drop them in. They turn a nice brown color. Ann likes those a lot and always have a couple in her bowl each time.
