Turkey Stock

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Roux: Heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup shortening in cast iron skillet until melted. Stir in two cups all purpose flour -- don't stop stirring -- ever.   Mine looked like dark peanut butter.
  2. To the cooked and browned roux, add the peppers, onions and celery and then the sausage. Stir until they have wilted for about 5 minutes. Stir in the turkey stock very slowly. Whisk if you need to. Add the turkey meat, sausage, chicken, and okra* and tomatoes. I add more thyme and some Tabasco to this.   If the gumbo looks too thick for you add some water - I reserved a cup of roux for future use but still added a few cups of water.
  3. To serve, ladle some into your bowl, top with some rice (we used brown rice), sprinkle with some file powder and sliced green onions and parsley.
  4. Ask your wife to make some corn bread.   Can't have gumbo without cornbread.
  5. *Okra -- fry the okra in a dry cast iron skillet, first. This will keep the gumbo from being slimy.

Recipe Notes
