RON PARRISH That is one good looking bowl right there!!! I love it

[RON PARRISH]

Dr_Pain Thanks! Its tough to hang with all you guys but the support you give sure makes it a lot of fun trying!

[Dr_Pain]

RON PARRISH I’ve made a few seafood gumbos and stews in my days and have done it many ways (white roux, okra, medium roux, dark roux). At the end of the day it is all about the outcomes!!! By your own account it was delicious so it was a success.

Don’t get me wrong you will find seasoned Cajuns that will crucify you for doing a seafood gumbo with anything other than okra but my favorite way is okra and tan roux. It gives the body and mouth feel I like. Your looks like it would coat the mouth just right

RON PARRISH that looks fantastic.

Dr_Pain seems like all traditional ethnic foods vary slightly according to how your mother, grandmother, or area made it and that’s the best and only way, but that sure makes for a lot of best dishes, lol. You said it right if you and your family like it then it’s right.

RON PARRISH “Messes” are very good as long as they taste good. It doesn’t matter if it makes it on the front page of the Food Network for presentation(looks). It just matters on the way down.

RON PARRISH The end result is all that matters.

Wife’s at work, kids are at school, so in true Jonathon fasion I went to dillons and got a Ribeye for lunch.

Also having Walnut valley porterhouses for dinner. Can anyone ever have to much steak in one day?

[Tex_77]

Gmoran No such thing as to much steak.

[HerbcoFood]

Gmoran Not until if you get the gout is it too much.

[Jonathon]

Tex_77 At these prices there might be?!

[Tex_77]

Jonathon All depends on how you are buying your meat.

[Gmoran]

Jonathon Walnut valley had a sale a few weeks ago. $10 a lb for porterhouses. (Eldorado store only) I didn’t think that was unreasonable in light of the times. Normally $17 a lb

[gus4416]

Gmoran good looking steak

[cdavis]

Gmoran looks great

[Dr_Pain]

Gmoran You know you are a steak fan when it is the only thing on your plate and you still consider it a full meal. As other said, there is no such thing as too much steak

[gus4416]

Dr_Pain I no it might not be good for you but I would eat dead red meat every day if my wife would let me sausage is good but there is nothing like a steak for dinner

[PapaSop]

Gmoran
AS Tex_77 said, no such thing!

That is why you have your sausage for breakfast and lunch.
