I never thought to add the crawfish tails without the shell but I can’t wait to try this recipe☺️

[Mrs.YahYah]

Being from New Orleans i approve this gumbo!!!

[ma_ntive]

The way he threw that spoon in the sink and it made all that noise 🤣😂

[klspencer]

Try baking your roux in the oven with a cast iron skillet. Medium heat, stirring every 10-15 minutes. It frees up your time to prepare other dishes.

I miss my Magnalite pot. That gumbo looks amazing. ❤

[MBeezy]

🗣 DONT LEAVE FROM THIS POT!!! that's literally law, if you mess that rue up then you essentially messed the gumbo up. Ya arm might be tired but 🤷🏾‍♂️ it's necessary

[Nicole-kp]

Who cares that you look and sounds like Lil Scrappy from LHHA, I Love and the way you slurp up that meal, is so coded!!!🖤

[shahrammaleki]

I will try this. I made your red beans and rice and it was better than what I had in NOLA.

[reneecasey]

I made this last night for the first time and I think I needed to make my rue thicker and darker but it was still delicious I also wish I took the crab out the shells . Next time I will

[pp]

Have you ever broken anything throwing the spoons and forks? 😂

[sigmaxx]

You don't need to use oil for your rue. If you don't, you really have to baby sit it. It's a lot better to just brown your flour over a medium heat. It taste a lot better that way. I also use lumped crab and a few blue crabs for flavor.

Also throw in a bag of dried shrimp for flavor. Just peeled de veined shrimp are good for eating. But real flavor comes from shrimp shells. So keep them in a bag so the bits don't get into the food.
This small tip will change yo life dawg.

Oh I got to try that without the crab s I do t eat those

[she_luxxoriii]

U dnt put no crawfish tail in it.. u can do the claw n wea ya dried shrimp at crab sausage chicken drummets okra

[DaphneWatson-lp]

What can you substitute for the crab legs and craw fish ????

[JeremyBurden]

Well when you added the garlic… u lost me… true New Orleans know that garlic doesn’t go in gumbo…. Just the trinity love…. No garlic… unless you are making creole gumbo but since you didn’t add tomato then I take it this was suppose to be Cajun… it looks good… and I’m sure it tastes delicious!!! But also…. “Gumbo” was a dish brought over by slaves and slaves it meant “okra” so technically if there isn’t any okra in it then it isn’t gumbo…. The white people started trying to replicate the dish but didn’t know what the word “gumbo” meant and used filè and roux to thicken it but it really isn’t gumbo if their isn’t any okra

[archangelmichvel]

Bro this look like it’s fyyye 😂😂😂that accent though lmao

[McZurneyTruSaw]

He didn't even cook the gumbo before eating it 😮

[dorothymonroe]

Baby fat on the back of your arm fo sure.
