CREOLE JAMBALAYA
An Old fashioned jambalaya recipe. I use a local hot sausage for this recipe but if you don't have any handy, any spicy pork sausage will work, I used to use chorizo when I was not in Louisiana, it works pretty good. You can also use any kind of left over meat if you like. I use chicken but have also used pork and it works fine. Use any kind of broth you like, I prefer chicken. Remember that white rice is cool but par boiled rice is a lot more forgiving. The key to a good Jambalaya is LEAVE IT ALONE, once you put the lid on let it cook for at least 30 min before you check on it.

- Remove the skin from the sausage if it has any.
- In a heavy bottomed pot with a tight fitting lid, brown the pork sausage braking it up, after the sausage is good and brown remove it with a slotted spoon If you have a lot of rendered fat you can pour it out but leave a couple of table spoons so you can brown your veggies. If you don't have any fat left over use a couple table spoons of butter to brown your veggies,.

- Add the browned sausage, smoked sausage and left over meat and stir till everything is well mixed.
- Add broth and bring to a boil, as it boils taste the jambalaya to determine how salty and spicy you want to make it. Once your happy with the broth add the rice and let it come to a boil again. Put the lid on it, turn it down to a medium low and LEAVE IT ALONE for at least a half an hour before you go checking it.
