    It was one of the best gumbos Ive ever made. Takes a while to make but is worth it with such rich flavors. Paula deen has the best southern recipes that are easy to follow.

    It was a good recipe. I didn't like all the seafood in it, just the crab and the shrimp. It was really good.

    Delicious. Easy. Lots of ingredients that give it the flavor. I had trouble finding file powder in stores where I live but can be bought online.

    This recipe is great!!! I altered it for a friend of mine who doesn't eat fowl or "meat." I used two cartons (32 oz. each of vegetable stock instead of the chicken stock and chicken base. I would have used seafood sausage, but the store was out, so I just omitted the sausage altogether. I chose the Worcestershire sauce over the soy sauce and tasted it before the seafood was added and was NOT pleased--it tasted sour. But after I added the seafood, the sweetness of the shellfish and the briny juices "magically" corrected that sour taste and it was great!

    My family and I loved this recipe. It was so easy. This recipe is one I will save and make again for family or for guest. Thanks, Paula!

    Super!! I had never made gumbo, nor a roux, before and was a little intimidated. However, it turned out to be quite simple as long as you pay attention to what you're doing. This dish was AWESOME and I was very impressed (with myself. Everyone loved it too! I must say, this was one of the best gumbo's I've eaten. I used scallops, shrimp, cajun sausage, a few crab claws, and a bag of crawfish tails. Mighty good! I have already invited guests over in a few weeks so I can make this for them.

    This is the simplest and tastiest gumbo recipe ever. I love this recipe. I add smoked sausage and chicken to it and make it a kitchen sink gumbo. I make it every year for either Christmas or New Year's Day.

    Excellent! Don't be overwhelmed by the list of ingredients. You'll probably have most things in your frig or pantry already. We're not big on oysters or scallops so I just added more shrimp and crab. I've also added left over chicken. We also add a bag of frozen corn. That's the beauty of gumbo... you can add or delete ingredients for your taste.

    Thanks Paula!!!

    Great recipe! I made Gumbo for the first time about two weeks ago using Paula's recipe. I was missing a few things like the thyme and file powder and chose not to use the soy sauce (soy allergy. But it turned out great anyway. It was a hit with the whole family. My husband had seconds and even ate some for breakfast! I'm making it again this weekend, I can't wait!!
