Happy Mardi Gras! Chuck, Katie & Stacey hope you are celebrating today . . . laissez les bon temps roulez!

If you're looking to celebrate with the taste of NOLA today, here's Chuck's recipe for andouille sausage & chicken gumbo, which will serve about 10 bowls (and will keep for five days, getting better each day):
3 cups onion, cut to a medium dice
2 cups celery, cut to a medium dice
2 cups green bell pepper, cut to a medium dice
2 lbs andouille sausage, cut in ¼ inch rounds
2 lbs boneless chicken thighs, cut into cubes
1 head of garlic, peeled and finely chopped
2 tblsp Italian seasoning
2 tblsp Creole spice (more or less, to taste)
¼ cup olive oil

For your roux – ½ lb butter + 1¾ cup flour

1 gallon chicken stock
¾ cup Worcestershire sauce
½ cup red wine
3 tblsp tomato paste

Combine the first nine ingredients in a two gallon pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until lightly wilted and remove from heat.

For your roux: In a cast iron skillet or thick-bottomed stainless steel pan, melt butter over medium heat. When the butter foams, stir in the flour ½ cup at a time. Stir with a wooden spoon until incorporated before adding next ½ cup. Once all flour has been added, continue stirring making sure to scrape all flour off bottom of pan. Stir constantly until your roux is the desired color of brown (essential: do not leave the stove while you are preparing your roux – any black flecks will ruin your roux and you will need to start again; if the mixture is cooking too hot, remove pan from burner and continue to stir until it cools slightly before returning to heat).

When your roux is a dark brown color, immediately add it to the veggie mix in the two gallon pot and stir; stir in the Worcester, red wine and tomato paste. Add stock and stir until it boils; reduce heat to simmer. Skim foam and fat.

Simmer for 45 minutes and season with salt to taste.

Serve over white rice.
