For Jambalaya I use a bit more than three: crawfish, shrimp, andouille (just a little), bacon (for the grease only), chicken breast, and lean pork. On a lazy day, or if I can't find crawfish, I'll make a simpler version with just shrimp and andouille.

Well I can safely say that I've never eaten mud bugs and never will. :D When I make jambalaya, I use either pork chops (off the bone) or pork loin; smoked sausage; and usually chicken breast; I once made it with shrimp instead of chicken breast, but I have to say, I like it better with chicken.

We recently discovered a new brand of sausage, which are "cajun spiced"; they're pretty good, spicy and a little hot, and I'll probably use those next time I make jambalaya, rather than the ordinary smoked sausage.

With new Andouille brands, I feel safer making the sausage first for a taste test. A lot of Andouille and "cajun" sausages can already be very spicy hot, so I have to adjust the rest of my seasoning accordingly.

Ya know you are gonna have to prove that to me.;)
I will. I make it the real Cajun style, like my relatives in Houma. My sister has gotten to where she likes the New Orleans style and uses Bluerunner. I like it both ways and it's a nice change of pace having hers.
The first dish you ever learned to cook? Mine was PB&J.:giggle:
Hmmm, you might have to give me some cooking lessons sometime.:)
My grandmother taught me. I can't really cook many other things well. lol!

I do like some Andouille in gumbo. Since I'm in Texas now, I also like Opa's.

After today one thing has become very apparent, if I go to hell I may have to ask them to turn the AC up or risk getting a chill. Fucking SE Texas summer. I am just about done with this crap and ready to move to Colorado.

Gah, Jambalaya and gumbo! Good thing I was sitting in downtown Ann Arbor in a nice little outdoor cafe, having some Tuna Tartare and Chevre & Pesto Gnocchi when I saw that. A FIRST, not caught hungry by food talk & pics.

I have never tried them at Taco Bell but I do love chalupas at this little mom and pop mexican restaurant here in town. I smother them in queso and jalapenos. I'll have to try one next time. Damn I am hungry, I wish dinner would hurry up and heat up.

Marley inherited Angel's (my first dog) bed and she does the same. But I have to watch her she likes to slam it into my entertainment center. I can't believe I am going to do this but #BigDogProblems. :giggle:

Fuh to the UCK. I had a crew enroute to Iowa to move equipment from the last shutdown there, to next weeks plant. Bout the time they hit Chicago, got a 911 call to get up to Marysville, MI. 5 hours the other way. Those guys aren't happy. Neither am I. Looks like I am awake all day, work all night shifting again. I'm going to have to tell them bitches, I already GOT the new toy. Hmm... might have to stick this in retirement savings. Going to be a LOOOONG nite. I hope a few stay up to keep me company..
