Sausage and Chicken Gumbo - Northern Style

Sausage and Chicken Gumbo - Northern Style by Michael Montgomery

What do you know about Gumbo? Was the answer/question I received from a delivery guy, in response to what I was cheffin' up in the kitchen that day. Well plenty, I can't eat gumbo without recalling a little place in the back alley of the French Quarter. I remember that the gumbo was good, but more importantly - I remember the whole…

Pig Pickin' BBQ Sauce for Pulled Pork or Ribs

Pig Pickin' BBQ Sauce for Pulled Pork or Ribs by myra byanka

East Texans are famous for bbq pork, not to say it can't be had in other parts of Texas, just as delicious to eat.

Herbed Duck Broth with Wild Rice

Herbed Duck Broth with Wild Rice by Amos Miller

Take most of one duck, some fresh herbs, the flavors from a few vegetables and simmer. Voila! It's that simple. Almost. This recipe employs one duck, but you will be able to serve each of 6 to 8 diners a lovely bowl of this 'soup course' delight. What we have here is not a consomme, not a soup, and not really, by classical…
