And the Winner is...

By quasi unanimous decision, the best meal of the whole trip was Bobby's gumbo, so here, courtesy of Barbra, is the recipe:
Chicken Gumbo

3 - Tablespoons flour
3 - tablespoons cooking oil (Bobby says earl, I say oil)
2 - onions (chopped)
3 - cloves garlic (chopped)
1 - 8oz pack cut, frozen okra
1 - small can tomato sauce
1/2 - bell pepper (chopped)
2 - stalks celery (chopped)
Chicken breast - boiled & cut in pieces (strain & save the water for
broth)
Smoked sausage - (how much you want?) cut & fried to get grease out,
then drain.
Water - use the water chicken was boiled in and add more water if
needed to bring amount to 6 cups.

Brown flour in cooking oil on medium/high heat until its pretty dark, stirring continually so it doesn't burn (that's called a roux ---- sometimes you might have to add a little more cooking oil). Add seasoning & okra and fry until seasoning wilted. Add tomato sauce and mix well. Next add water/broth, chicken & fried sausage. Bring to a boil and then lower fire. Cover and let cook on low for an hour or so. Be sure to stir often so it doesn't stick or burn. Don't forget to cook some rice. Good Luck.
