- Hey everybody! Today we are cooking a Louisiana staple, meatball stew. Our special guest today gave y'all some tips and tricks on how to achieve the perfect meatball stew. As always, hit that LIKE and SUBSCRIBE button to show your support.
I've been making meatballs for my spaghetti & meatballs for 50 yrs. I like adding bread, eggs, and a bit of milk because it tends to make the meatballs more tender. It also helps to stretch your meat out further.
I agree 100% @drutheford24able I also add bread and eggs in my meatballs and Hamburgers but Q just does his a little different!! Thanks for watching and commenting
Southeast Texas eats it but it definitely was a recipe passed down from my in laws that came from New Iberia and St. Martinsville. The magnalite pot is absolutely what I use and I know my mother in law is cooking with me when I make it. ❤
I figured southeast Texas did @stef1lee there’s a lot of Cajuns down there! Thanks for watching and commenting
I'm Cajun and from Port Acres, TX and we grew up on this too. It's definitely one of my favorites
Nacogdoches.
Oh my word. I could listen to that accent all day ❤
lol thank you @misschellebells! And thank you for watching and commenting
I make this. I'm a Texan, but my Momma is from South Louisiana. She made this while we was growing up. Now I make it, and it's a favorite. New sub 🙂
Thanks for subscribing @invicta_vita there is a lot of Cajuns around south Texas! Thanks for watching and commenting neighbor!!
@@captaincobyscajuncooking6144 I'm from Southeast Tx, closer to the Louisiana border. Looking forward to all your recipes. 🙂
Im the old boy at work ( seasoned plumber) , i like to bring in crock pot meals for the young men, especially on labor intensive days, to help build up spirits. I will be incorporating this meal in, looks absolutely delicious! Thanks gents.
That’s awesome we the old guys at work too!! lol please let me know how your meatball stew turns out!!
I was born in Port Arthur Texas ( Mother from Abbeyville La. ) and have been eating Meat Ball Stew ( we called it Poor Boy Stew ) since I can remember and I am now 75 years old. I am still eating it and it is one of my favorite meals even today, love dat meal ! ! !
Glad you enjoyed the video @davidmcduffie1398 and I’m glad you are sticking your you Cajun roots!! Thanks for watching! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen

Any time my brother! @tbonetx9736 glad you enjoyed it! And thank you for watching and commenting!
Another great Captain Coby cooking episode. I've been patiently waiting. That meatball stew looks amazing, served over rice, looks amazing.
Thank you my brother @andrewhedger3872 try that and let me know how that turns out!!
Hey there Capt Cory sir! My father retired, Capt David Wallace Jr., was an excellent fisherman & cook! I have found memories of us kids in the evening going to the station visiting all the firemen & participating in their community events. Daddy's funeral was as if the US President was honored & being laid to rest - just outstanding! I shall never forget the wonderful "Fireman Family" lifestyle!
Thank you sooo much for providing your great videos - I have thoroughly enjoyed & brought back very fond memories of yesteryear! Be Blessed 👍🏿🌹💕
Sorry about your father Ma'am. I met the firefighter in charge of Fort Polk post years ago over a few shots. I never had time to enjoy your state as I was working many hours, but intend to re-visit. Take care and sorry again about your father Ma'am. He obviously raised a good daughter!
Thank @shaemcg9103 Firefighters are truly special people! I’ve met thousands and the respect we have for one another is truly remarkable I’m not sure of any profession that does it like firefighters! I’m sure your dad was a great firefighter and obviously a great dad! Thank you for watching and telling your story!
Hey capt. Just finished eating . I followed the recipe perfectly besides i only have 4 mouths to feed so cut it down to 1/4 . I'm not a huge fan of jar roux BUT like yall said in the video when ppl don't have time or really dont know how to cook a homemade roux , i think jar roux is great . I think we both a agree a homemade roux is better . Besides that 2 thumbs up capt. Look forward to your next video .
Awesome @Louie-fv2sx glad you enjoyed that! I’ll be making Boudin next! See you on the Blast! Thanks for watching and commenting brother!!
Captain Coby this looks amazing. My mom made this when I was growing up. Now I’m going to make this meatball stew. Thank you for great seasonings and videos. KEEP THEM COMING.
You got it @marcscroggs895 let me know how that turns out! Thanks for watching brother! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen
Lol you called Tennessee North. I tell them all the time I'm from the south. Ponchatoula. Katrina translocation us. I'm making this for the lodge next month. Thank you both for your tips, tricks, knowledge, wisdom. Never stop never stopping!
Lmao! Our pleasure @patriotenterprises9305 please let me know how it turns out!! Thanks for watching
Thank you for this video and free training. One Cajun I knew and greatly respected, I met in Panama. Any boat that goes thru the canal, has to turn over the ship and steering wheel so to speak to a PANCANAL Pilot. Junius was one. He never completed High School and was enormously respected. One day, after the Army (I finished in the NG), in rural Vermont, a black Cadillac pulls up and out steps Captain Junius. I have been enormously lucky to meet great people from all over the world. 25 years or so abroad and still exploring. Many places, I have been to, but was working 18 or more hours a day and had no time to have fun. LA is a place I intend to re-visit. Spent 2 months there with about 10 hours off and did not really care for Bourbon street, but near the college was really great. Take care everyone and thank you again for this free class.
Thank you @jackwalker9492 my pleasure on the free class!! lol and if you want some great authentic Cajun food and meet some great Cajun people!! just go 2 hours west of New Orleans to Lafayette or towns surrounding! Thanks for watching
@@captaincobyscajuncooking6144 Thank you Captain! From Bogota, Colombia! I was Infantry a long time and just learning to cook. Not great at it, but enjoy it and the price is right. Thank you very much. It is generous of you to put time and effort into this.
Well please let me know how your dishes turn out if you try the recipes! Good luck
I found that if my pan is heated on a slow flame, the roux will melt faster without water. Use a stainless steel cake icing spatula to keep the roux moving. Once the roux is mostly melted add water very slowly while stirring until roux cools to below boiling point. Then add water slowly to keep up temperature. This procedure, I found, keeps the roux from foaming.
Good to know I’ll try that!! I usually make my own roux! We shot two videos that day so it made it easier on us to do the jar roux! I usually turn that lid on the pot so that roux can breathe and usually keeps it from foaming over!!
That is a healthy meatball! Love the recipe! I am on board with any recipe that limits ingredients to the bare necessities and CELEBRATES “The Roux” as the primary element!
Well done gentlemen!
Well @VernBigDaddy we love using roux and I love Cooking hang tight we gonna have more great recipes coming out!
It's crazy how we all cook this the same down here. Have a buddy that puts shrump in his. I think his grandma made it like that.
I make shrimp stew and meatball stew but I never put them together hmmm, may have to try that! @cdsnider9496 Thank for watching and commenting
I'm from up north. Originally from NJ. My mother made meatball stew often when i was a kid. She lost her recipe for the roux so she stopped making it back in the 80s. Haven't thought about it for decades. Well I'm gonna try this soon. Mom put potatoes and carrots in there similar to a beef stew but i like this idea with some rice. Ummm.
I make my meatballs and meatloaf like you do with no binder and lots of elbo grease but never do that to my burgers. I found the less i work the burger meat the more tender it is.
Glad this was in my suggestions.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too @erikvaldur3334 I have a video on making roux also! So please let me know how your meatball stew turns out! Thanks for watching and commenting
@@captaincobyscajuncooking6144 well seeing I won't have the time to cook this til the weekend, ( working a side job after work again this week) I will look for your roux video before this weekends cooking extravaganza.
I'll let you know how it turns out if I can remember. Pretty shot from long hours the last few weeks but I should remember to come back here .
Very happy I just found your channel a few days ago. Great job with the videos and the food looks incredible so far.
Can't wait to find the roux video.
My mom is from Mississippi...she made a version of this with onions and diced tomato in the gravy....ate it over rice.....I may have to rattle some pots n pans this weekend. Thanks Capt.!

Good stuff! I add a little Captain Coby's to most things I cook. It took my meatloaf from edible to outstanding!

Oh man that looks like a feast. From Lafayette, thanks for the upload.
It was a feast! @malreynolds9591 thanks for watching and commenting hope to see you around Laffy!
When you over mix the groundmeat it makes it tuff...better to add binders...makes the meatballs tender....made this recipe and it was delicious only thing I did different added a binder...tastes great and my meatballs were super tender...:0)😁
Im excited you tried the recipe! @christywhitelyons9310 I always use a binder Quentin doesn’t just different styles of cooking!! Thanks for watching and trying the recipe! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen
I'm a Toups, ate this all the time in Lafayette if we didn't get etouffe or red beans on Sunday.
Just take the lid off, set it in the hot water and it'll all slide out the jar.
You related to Wayne?? @ClassicllyNamed
@@captaincobyscajuncooking6144 very distant cousin, like a lot of Toups. My mother got tickets to his show back in the day, but she was also related to Gary Jennings, and he got her those. But she did talk with him, but that's the only part I heard.
I do like Issac Toups outta New Orleans. Id claim him too!
@@ClassicallyNamedI think he’s from Rayne
This is like a Cajun version of Japanese curry. I'll have to give it a try.
Hmmm never had Japanese Curry! @Kylsix but please let me know how yours turns out when you. Do cook ig
Come on Capt.Coby!!!……
Where’s the green onions????😊😊😊
I’m with you @raspeight22 I love um! We just didn’t use them that day!! Thanks for watching thought!!
Here in east Texas, we call this meatballs and gravy. We pour it over rice or mashed potatoes.
Well thats pretty much what it is! lol @crystalyj30 thanks foe watching and commenting!
Meatballs in onion gravy here in New England. Spices are a little different. Technique is very similar.
Can’t wait to try This. It looks amazing. Thank you.
Please let me know how it turns out! @jenniferthomas8293! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen
I will thank you
I want some already, can smell it! 😅
lol @desert_van that meatball Stew just has that effect on people! Thanks for watching
Question , can you liquidlfy the rue in a pot of warm water or microwave ? Can't wait to try this ! Thank you for sharing .
Yes @williamh192 you can soften the roux in warm water or the microwave it makes it easier to get out of the jar! But be careful not to burn it in the microwave
First time I've seen your show, and I enjoyed it. However, someone needs to teach Capt. Colby how to safely to chop an onion! When I watched him do it, I just knew he was going to take off the tips of his fingers! Man, learn to curl those knuckles back in!
Lmao @kylemoppert I’ve cut um before! I would love to learn how to curl them knuckles! Thanks for watching and commenting! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen
I was the same way --- I *totally* cringed while watching him.
I'm *soooo* glad he didn't end up seasoning his onyons wit' blood!
I cought dat Captian ! i was watching the steam gettin stronger i knew it was fixin to foam over and the next shot before you gave him the shirt you had the lid off and your pot had roux run down the sides Lol Like day say if it didnt boil over it ain't no good Lol Hello from big Vinton here
lol that’s how you make that stew Creamy!! @scottcourville1191 Thanks for watching and ordering that seasoning!!!
Lawdy, this looks good!
Thank you @mysterymenmonsters4310 it was really good! And thank you for watching and commenting!!
Never in my life have I seen roux-in-a-jar.
There’s a ton of it here in Louisiana! @randymousley1427 I do prefer to make my own but sometimes you have to deviate! Thanks for watching
You can use an icecream scoop for consistency of your meatballs , also if you use a whisk ( for you commercial grade size )lol and try an experiment cook the meatballs in the stew as i know italian meatballs are cooked in the gravey ( sauce ) it will help with flavour . Just some thoughts .
Thank you @archangel729 never thought of an ice cream scoop!! Thanks for watching! Keep cooking and I’ll see you in the kitchen!!
Absolutely luv yall accent..tfs..fye!
Well thank you @cmgblessed247 and thank you for watching and commenting!!

I make Ghost Pepper hot sauce over here in Youngsville. It goes very well in all cajun dishes. Especially roux based dishes. You should try it out.
Come see me at the Fire Station 9 in Lafayette I’ll swap you some seasoning for some hot sauce! @jaystax8370

Great video brother. Please tell me you poured some of that au jus in the pot. Subscibed Cap.

Thank you VernBigDaddy I appreciate that and thanks for watching and commenting
NEVER put a cover on boiling roux!!! I see the Roux tracks on the outside of the pot...💯💯🤣🤣😰😰
lol @brettbrignac7591 that was my fault too I covered it to do a segment in the video and it didn’t take long to overflow!!
Why don't you add water to the roux jar and microwave it to make it easier to spoon out. Or add water and insert an immersion blender. Just a thought.
Well it’s easy to do that when you are using the whole jar like we did here @crmbaker but when you only need a little bit that spoon comes in pretty handy! Thanks for watching
I didn't see you turn the oven off, we don't want to burn the firehouse down.
lol @Ridgerunner5 I don’t want to burn it down either!! I get in enough trouble! Lmao thanks for watching and commenting
You're making New England's meatballs with onion gravy, just with a lot of spices from your neck of the woods.
Never heard of that but I’ll take your word for it! @andrewholleman thanks for watching bro!
The only thing I would have changed......two gallons of beer instead of water! 🤣
lol that would probably be delicious! Thanks for commenting
How do you make roux ? Im from the north raised to cook like in the south
I have a video on how to make roux! It should be step by step! @marywinter809 please try them both and let me know how that turns out!!
They should call it whistle stew
I almost scared to ask but why whistle stew?
We make our Roux homemade this way we don’t measure nothing in Louisiana go by the eye and taste
I usually make mine as well! And I agree i usually don’t measure much either! Thanks for watching and commenting

If you use good chop meat not crap from the store with all the chemicals in it. Get it from a butcher we have a longhorn beef farm Longhorn beef does not shrink when cooked it’s very lean super high in protein super low in fat.
Well not sure if I ever had Longhorn beef? But thank for the great information and thank you for watching!@andykminek443
Where is the bell pepper? Celery? Garlic? And adding them raw to dem meatballs? You sauté those vegetables first! My maw maw just turned over in her grave! Where is da bay leaf? Jarred roux is ok! But you crumble it first! You don’t spoon dat in the pot! You add crumbled jarred roux, Cher! 6.5! 😘
I put onions and belle pepper and garlic in my meatballs @melvinatkins998 but Quinton like only onions! Just a different way of cooking it!! It still came out awesome! Thanks for watching and responding!

Better know what you’re talking about before you start talking about it. The protein in the lean bind together to stiffen the mix. Fat has nothing to do with it. Fat breaks down and leaves the mix. Please stop spreading misinformation and have some knowledge about what you’re talking about.
Fat leaves the mix??? So just cook meat and all the fat leaves??
