This was very good. I had to make a few adjustments. I was unable to locate the sausage on short notice. I subbed hot spicy polish sausage which reduced the amount of fat and reduced the need for skimming. I added Old Bay to increase the level of spiceyness. I served with brown rice, a platter of veggies, and asiago garlic bread.

Being a real Cajun ex-pat living in the Midwest, I have to find some recipes my mom didn't teach me. This one is real and how I remember it. It's a simple dish, best with fresh shrimp right out of the Gulf - hard to find here. Real Cajun food is not overly spiced, so the authentic stuff is probably not as appealing as the "cajun" food one finds outside of Louisiana. But if you want the real stuff, this is it...

I usually enjoy Emeril's recipes, but this one's a dud. It tastes like a dull gumbo, without the vegetable mix or interesting ingredients. The potatoes make it so bland and starchy, it's like eating library paste. If you want this, make a gumbo instead.
