Posted: Oct 16 2016 Post subject: Two smoked chickens today. Update Finished. |
|
|
Monday is Boss's day so the secretary's asked if I would cook a gumbo. It will be smoked chicken, sausage and okra gumbo with eggs of course.
Here are the birds resting after their pecan smoke sauna.
More tomorrow.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend.  _________________ Always remember slow and steady wins the race.

Those birds should add a nice smoke flavor to your gumbo. _________________ Chargriller

That looks like a nice pot of gumbo. I believe I could eat a bowl or 2 of that. Nice job. _________________ Chargriller

GreenSmoker, I'm here to tell you that everything I ate while visiting Kevin and Debbie last spring was really damn good...especially the gumbo
That looks fantastic, Kevin. It's been cool, windy and wet here the last couple weeks...I sure could go for a bowl of that gumbo right now. Nicely done, brother  _________________ save the neck for me, Clark - Cousin Eddie |

I must say, I've never had eggs in my gumbo. Then again, I've never had gumbo below the Mason-Dixon Line. Are the eggs a Southern thing? _________________ Brinkman Upright

KAM how do you make your roux? Is that just flour and oil? Only asking because it looks different than my roux stirring.
I know there are hundreds of ways to make it, just curious.

My roux is vegetable oil and flour. When it gets to the dark brown I want I add my trinity and two bay leaves. The pic is after the trinity and bay leaves were added and finished on low flame for about 30 minutes. _________________ Always remember slow and steady wins the race.

Thank You Josh.
Thank You Rayzer. It is pretty much a southern thing. Some do it others add potato salad to their bowl. We do eggs and once folks taste that egg they are usually hooked.  _________________ Always remember slow and steady wins the race.
