Grilled burgers, pasta salad, strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting. Hate when my wife cooks that cake because I will eat half of it one sitting

Meat lovers omelet. Huddle House.

Fried some Boudin balls, and grilled some boneless chicken thighs to cut up and put in some Zatarain's Caribbean Rice

We had friends over at the cabin and I made some of my better Gumbo. I'm diggin' our new stove. I converted it over to propane and I have it running off a set of 20# propane tanks just like you would in an RV. It works great and made on of the darker roux's I have made...

I cheated and use some of this pre made roux and it turned out great.

I've seen that stuff, but it eliminates the whole process of drinking beer and making it from scratch.

Lol yeah I guess it does. The last time I made a gumbo roux I stirred it for an hour and a half then when I mixed my broth it separated.. ticked me off pretty good. The broth was steaming when I added it. Idk what I did wrong

Dang Irish, that is some dark roux. That took some time

The Irish are known for their roux.

... Oh and drinkin'.

OK... So what I do is when the roux gets to looking like it does in the picture is I throw in the chopped onions, celery, bell peppers and garlic. That stops the roux from cooking and coats the veggies in it. Stir that for a minute or two, then add the beef broth, 1/4 cup of Worcester sauce, a can of chopped tomatoes, bay leaves, and the sausage and chicken.

I let all that simmer until it's really happy. Then saute the okra in bacon grease before I add it in to reduce the sliminess and then the last thing I add is the shrimp.

The meat really depends on what I have on hand. I've used just chicken, just sausage, just fish, just shrimp, or a combination of them and maybe oysters or clams too.

Dang fellers making a ROUX ain't rocket science 😁

I'm in heaven tonight, had my fill of deviled eggs 🐣 and my Mama made some Apricot Salad for me 😆
