Russ i watch this video of yours time and time again. Seafood Gumbo was may grandmothers specialty and i have never got my nerve up to do it since she passed "God bless her soul" but the more I watch your video makes me more and more want to give it a try

My grandmother used dried shrimp. Your the first recipe I've found with this ingredient. Ive found the truth!

If u ask 100 folks how 2 make gumbo, u will get 100 different ways everybody makes it. The common thread is that "true" gumbo makers understand the importance of a good seafood-stock. This guy clearly knows that & along with a good roux, his gumbo gota b rock'n steady! Great video!!!

I used to live in South Louisiana (Houma) to work in an oilfield company, and let me tell you, the food was fantastic.! I miss the days where I enjoyed Gumbo, Jambalaya, Crawfish, Shrimp Pasta, Good sea food, and above all, the warming attention from the Southeners..thanks Louisiana..the men's sport paradise..!!

If there is anyone out there that has never tried Conecuh sausage you gotta try it! One can only find it in the deep south. i.e. Alabama, Misssissippi, Louisiana and the Florida panhandle. I also use it in gumbo. To me it is much better than andoulli. This is an awesome recipe. Thanks for sharing!

The dried shrimp were a very nice touch. Thanks for sharing.

you have the best way to cook gumbo...second time following it. I live in Georgia...Retired Army

I would call this gumbo close to home . The reason I say this is, this is as close to what I remember my mother making, while I was growing up, than any gumbo that I have seen, to this day . When mother would make her gumbo, couldn't wait til it was cooked, but it was always better on the following day . And to me, of course, hers was always the best . It was slightly on the spicy hot side, that while I was eating it, I would sweat from my forehead . Being that I'm from Mobile Alabama, I have tasted a number of seafood gumbo . My mother is almost 87 now, and no where near able of making her gumbo today . Those were truly the good old days . Thanks for sharing the video, even though it has been on KZread for some time now . Man; that's some good stuff !!!!

Yeah, I like to portion a gumbo out in one quart freezer bags after I cook a big pot, and then freeze it. It freezes very well, and really handy when wanting something great to eat, but not in the mood for a long cook. I also freeze shrimp heads and shells, and crab shells and such when I cook seafood to save for a good stock.

It really adds a nice element into the gumbo. $20 in a restaurant is why I make it my self, lol! I ended up with enough to eat two meals with, and still froze over 2 gallons. That's the way to do it ;)

If there were an Internet Final Four of Gumbo Recipes, this would be a "shoe-in" for one of the top spots! That reduction trick is pretty slick, as are the dehydrated shrimp. If you could even get a Gumbo like this in a restaurant, they'd have to charge an arm-and-a-leg for it. Ingredients & labor for a batch that size would probably warrant charging $25-30 (or so) per bowl. Pretty work.

absolutely speechless & drooling!! you know the right type of seasonings to use too. great breakfast after a night of heavy drinking.

Yeah, back in the day, gumbo was one of those things you could make inexpensively, but with the price of seafood now days, it can be very expensive, but making a big batch does allow you to freeze a lot of it, and have it over several months, so that does make it better. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it, and I know first hand how much work this is lol! To this day, this has got to be the longest hardest video I've done to date, but it's been well worth the effort!
