The perfect cold weather warm up to come home to after a long day. I would even embellish it with more of your favorite meats and spices to give it your own flare.

My mom and girlfriend really liked this recipe and declared it a keeper. I went with the majority of the reviewers and decreased the cayenne by half a teaspoon and it was perfect; just hot enough to keep it interesting but not where all you tasted was heat.

My Fiance' and I LOVED this!! I would decrease the amount of pepper just a little to cool it down, but it ROCKED!!

While I agree, this is a gumbo not Jambalaya, it still tastes good and is great form the crock-pot. I didnt add any of the cayenne and used a dash of tabasco instead and I had to leave out the shrimp cause I am allergic to seafood.

I did add some chopped onions and bell peppers (to make the "holy trinity" of creole cooking.

All in all not bad and my family (including small kids) likes it.

I used less of the cayenne, and still it was very spicy !

This is a great tasting recipe that's very easy to make. My only complaint about this recipe is that it turns out VERY spicy. So watch which sausage you put in it because it makes it really spicy. Polish sausage made it too hot for me to eat much of. Also this makes a very large batch. It would definitely serve a crowd!
