LCG Gumbo Cook Thread

[caseydog]

I do not see a cook thread yet. I would actually enjoy smoking up some Tasso for the Friday gumbo, should it be desired. Who is the gumbo-master this year?

The clock is ticking, we need to have a recipe, and volunteers. Tasso is already taken.

I volunteer! but not for leader, I wouldn't know where to start but if you need a shrimp or potato peeler I am in, I can't peel crawfish though, I love em but they look like little roaches when they are whole! Whoever mans the ship I am here to contribute where I can though!

[mechmagcn]

Not willing to take responsibility for cooking, but if someone will post up the ingredient list, I'll be sure to bring something for the pot

I would hate to sign another person up for the job, however the "Chef" from last year did a great job!

Here's the list from last year. Perhaps the Chef can edit as he or she sees fit. But it gives a place to start

15#s boneless, skinless chicken breasts Nobody 5#s, Starleen2 5#s, Thomas 5#s

15#s smoked sausage...various brands are OK, a Cajun version would be better - Planovet 5#s, Jeff & Micki 5#s, Casydog 5#s

3#s of tasso = Caseydog

10#s of chopped (fresh/frozen) Okra...or comb of the two Kenny and Julie

10-15#s of white or yellow onions - 48Rob

4-6 LARGE green bell peppers Sonetpro

2-3 bunches of celery Sonetpro

32 oz jar of chopped garlic - Loader

10-12 bunches of green onions- Loader

10#s long grain rice - Pam and Bob

Roux (in a jar) any brand will work but the Chef told me Zatarains is preferred. MadJack

Tabasco - Loader

...please pick a portion of the ingredients to bring and post it here so we know who is bringing what and PLEASE chop/cube all ingredients beforehand and have them ready and at the party site (#38) early afternoon on Fri.


As Jack taught me many years ago, one can't list the ingredients for a gumbo without letting out a loud "AAIIIEEEEEE!!!"

Obviously we need a coonass to tell us what is in it. HELLO jack,jim,gary,eddie

Just posted last years list.....guess I was typing at the same time you were

[Pam & Bob Bertrand]

I will bring the 30 cup rice cooker and the rice. I can assist in making the gumbo if needed. I do not make the best but I have made it a time or two.

Eddie did a great job last year! I'd be glad to help him out again this year. (Help is really code for watch, shoot the breeze, and drink a cold beer!)

Never fear a coonass is here! (or is that HAVE FEAR a coonass is hear?) anyway! I'll do the cooking and bring all the gear to do the cooking if y'all want. Y'all just supply the fixins and I'll put it in a pot.

Please remember to have your ingredients at the cook site by 3:30 pm Friday.

Also Please have the stuff already copped up. Just makes things a lot more fun.
