    Amazingly good and worth the prep work. I didn't have green bell pepper, so I used fired roasted sweet peppers, which added a nice sweetness to contrast the slight spice. I also omitted the file powder. Really yummy dish that we served with Paula Deen's baked cheesy grits. Yum-o!

    Nice. My girlfriend grows her own okra, lots of it and I wanted to try cooking something different with okra and found this as I was in the mood for shrimp.
    I followed the recipe closely but had to sub vegetable stock for fish stock and I have no clue what file powder is so just used Zatarain's Creole seasoning on the shrimp which is an easy substiute for Emeril's Creole seasoning combo.
    I served it to my girlfriend and her comment was, " this is really good, it tastes just like some dish I had when I was on Bouron St. in New Orleans." Well, if that didn't make my day. Then I let her know that it was a Emeril Legasse recipe who's an expert in Creole cooking. Wow. Looking at a lot of the other shrimp gumbo recipes, this one was one of the quickest and easiest and so delicious and moderately spicy. Hmmmm....good.

    Did this for a Mardi Gras party of 10. Well worth the effort (easy and flavors were wonderful. Did with BBQ shrimp as the starter and needed the different flavors to "undo" all the butter from the shrimp! Excellent.

    This was amazing. I didn't bother with shrimp stock or file powder - instead I just used chicken broth. Sausage was also a nice addition. I highly recommend this gumbo.
