Bayou Magic File Gumbo (12 pack(tm)

I love all there products , so tasty

This stuff is great!! Not quite as good a scratch gumbo, but close enough to fool your visiting yankee relatives into thinking you been working all day making up roux!! ;-)It's not a real strong roux, but is quite delicious. I add chicken breast meat (thigh meat added gives it extra flavor), andoullie sausage (Eckrich Smoked Sausage works fine if you're not a fan of andoullie), and shrimp. Simply follow the directions, although I would like to see Bayou Magic revise the directions. This is important... use cold water as directed, BUT... DO NOT dump the entire package into the kettle all at once. Add it slowly, stirring all the while. If you fail to do this, the gumbo mix will clump up and stay clumped throughout the cooking process. Biting into these clumps of seasoning does not taste real well. Learn from my impatience and mistake!!! I've used Bayou Magic products for years and have never been disatisfied. Buy with confidence and ENJOY!!!!

Better than all the rest

Very little skill in making gumbo follow the package instruction add your goodies, and bam gumbo so good everyone will think your a great cook.

Spice it up on the side with various hot sauces and everyone seems to love this. Have made it for several parties and always get numerous compliments. Glad to see that it's finally available on Amazon.

This is an awesome product...really flavorful!!

Very good

Why slave for hours over a hot stove. I've been using this product for many years and it's delicious, easy and quick-- for gumbo. As good as anything I've had on Bourbon Street!
