    I had made Isaac Toups gumbo a few months back, and just as he said then "If you feel a lil brave, get that oil rocking hot." Mind you this was my first time making gumbo, or a roux, but I was feeling BRAVE, and burned it beyond recognition.

      The most fundamental concept in cooking to do with hot (in terms f temperature) food is that you need to let it cool down before eating, otherwise, you will not be able to taste everything properly, not to mention burning your tongue. How can I trust a dumbass who shovels piping hot results into his mouth?

    So I made this last night at my boyfriends because surprisingly he had everything but some celery. It turned out so good!!! I make gumbo all of the time but I’ve never made jambalaya before but it is a very similar process. It made together really fast. I have a 12inch cast iron skillet and I made everything it that. I love that it is a one pan dish as well. I added shrimp in mine and I cooked that hand and then the step where you add the butter, that’s when i folded in the shrimp as well. The only reason i did the shrimp separate was because i didnt want them to over cook. I didn’t follow the recipe to a T because I didnt measure everything out but I mostly just eyeballed everything to what i though he said, but again it came out AMAZING!!! Great easy simple recipe

    Issac: have been watching you and your career since Top Chef. Made this jambalaya yesterday for Sunday dinner. Your instructions for the roux were spot on (though I used quinoa flour instead): constant stirring and nice dark roux. Also, I was stunned at how good the gravy smelled after that one hour (or maybe 1:15) of simmering. Then you add the andouille and chicken ... holy cow. My kids (11 and 15) had never had this before and they loved it. Very, very glad I made it. Thank you for your help! Cook-on, Chef!

It's genuinely one of the best-tasting things I ever cooked - this recipe is lush. Highly recommended. My dad doesn't eat pork, so I replaced the andouille with Turkish sucuk from our local market. Still tasted awesome.

      black roux... the roux for gumbo and jambalaya is a black roux. And he's right, you can't make it with unclarified butter because it will burn and leave a bad taste in the final product.
      You could clarify the butter and skim the milk fats and water. Then the butter has a higher smoke point, never tried this for black roux, though

I crisped the andouille in the chicken pan, then deglazed the pan with a great IPA and threw that in the pot too. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs got seared good, and turned out to be the best chicken I ever had in my mouth.
