Only caught about 5 crabs a couple weeks ago. Added the cleaned crabs and shrimp and Tasso to a real dark roux.  Had it for the 2nd day in a row today. Probably gonna have it for lunch tomorrow too. Can’t get enough. 

Gumbo is always better the 2nd Day! The marination process is complete by the 2nd day! Man my wife’s gumbo is legit! My 2 boys always beg my wife to make gumbo since they learned how to talk. Love me some homemade fried shrimp patties on the side with potato salad.

You are exactly right about the 2nd day being better. That’s a gumbo competition secret (cheat). Cook the regulation pot of gumbo on-site. Sneak a small batch made the day before to use for what you turn in.

My old neighbor was authentic, couldn't understand half of what he was saying. Just him and his wife, they only knew how to cook for 10 people. So they would knock on the door unannounced, with a big pot of gumbo and homemade bread. One time, my dad and I, must have spent 20 mins trying to dig out the meat before we realized there was nothing but okra in there. All we had was Italian sausage, from Nick's of course. He cooked it up and dropped them in. Honestly the strangest gumbo I've ever had, but a great memory.

I make a mean shrimp and crab meat gumbo. Fed some blue hats back at the old Texaco Chemical (Huntsman now). Most were coonass and they complimented me on my gumbo. I figure that was good enough for me. I like mine with rice, but potato salad is good too. Had to have potato salad for them guys. Lol

My etouffee is pretty good too. I don’t claim to be the best, but I have never had a complaint.

We happened to find some La crawfish (complete with fat) at Sams.   My wife made (some of?) the best etouffee I’ve ever ate.  Literally, my mouth is watering as I’m posting this.😛😛😛

Man, that sounds awesome. Just heard my stomach growl just thinking about it.

      13,000,000 trespassers…..”Book ‘em Dano”. Hey, we could all sit around and sing “Kumbaya”. If 13,000,000 illegals doesn’t constitute an invasion, what is the other name…..a road trip?

      Liberty is Open

      I don't know anything about Harrison other than the fact that his coaching history is limited, at best. Social media seems to indicate he has been given the Athletic Director and Head Coach title, which is even more baffling for a guy who has not one iota of experience in either role. Especially when Karen Slack is right there in house. All I know is this: there was absolutely a candidate on their list, who they interviewed, who has 20+ years' experience as a SUCCESSFUL AD/HC in the SETX area. He would've been a slam dunk hire and gotten folks in Liberty excited about playing football again, especially with the group of young kids they have coming up through the ranks. Unfortunately, they decided to take a different route. Like I said, I am not throwing shade at Harrison, everybody has to get their first job somewhere. I just hope Liberty didn't pass a great opportunity for some reason other than thinking Harrison was the superior candidate.

      Idiot. Stop posting half baked caca. Per the Texas Public Policy Institute, “The American history of the term invasion reveals that its literal meaning is entry plus enmity. Entry alone, which is trespass, is not sufficient to constitute an invasion”. Stop lying.

      Ok. Couldn’t let this one pass.  All the countries listed are countries that Russian interests prefer we and our allies leave alone (to them). Any thoughts, pea brain?
