CROCK POT SMOKED SAUSAGE GUMBO
Smoked sausage gumbo is a favorite with my family.
GUMBO: It is a dinner in itself, being soup, piece de résistance, entremet and vegetable in one. Healthy, and not heating to the stomach and easy of digestion, it should grace every table.” ~~William H. Coleman, ‘Historical Sketch Book and Guide to New Orleans and Environs’ (1985)
You could double for a large crowd, keeps well for days refrigerated and can be frozen.
Smoked sausage gumbo makes a wonderful weeknight meal.
