You ever make jambalaya?

Yes. Not vey often because I prefer gumbo or dirty rice so I usually end up making one of those.

I ran across an old recipe last night. Remember making it years ago. It was good except one thing. The frozen shrimp I used kinda ruined it. This time going with fresh shrimp.

In the near future gonna ask you about a good gumbo recipe. Have never made it and would like to give it a try.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yes or no @trojanfan12? Yes for me I love pickles.

Fresh shrimp is always best. The only time I use frozen shrimp is when I'm frying it. One of my son and my wifes favorite dishes is Bang Bang Shrimp so I keep a bag of frozen shrimp on hand so I can make it without having to make a special trip to the store. Fresh or frozen doesn't seem to matter in that dish.

Nah. I'm picky as hell about pizza toppings. Pretty much stick to cheese, sausage, pepperoni. lol

You ever do white pizza? I’ve come to understand that East coast and West coast pizza are different animals. White pizza done right with a true mixture of ricotta and mozzarella is bomb. Lots of garlic. We have a spot around the corner from us that does a white pizza style bruschetta pizza. Ricotta, mozzarella, no sauce, tomato based bruschetta spread and big ol leaves of basil on the pie. I try and limit my carb consumption but this pie is a cheat day favorite in my house.

Sounds racist...

Ha! The white means it’s a sauceless pizza.

I've grilled & fried frozen shrimp many times never had a problem. My guess is this jambalaya recipe I have in the crock pot isn't for frozen shrimp.

Kinda figured. L all good...

Speaking of pizza there's no real good places around here.

Where are you located again?

 

[Wamu]

Boulder, CO.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Boulder, CO.

That surprises me. I have read that Boulder is a strong place for foodies. Maybe that’s the case and they just don’t fuck with pizza.

That should carry a minimum prison sentence.

 

[fightinfunbags]

It’s really good if done right.

There are alotta good places around here to eat. But none with good pizza.

Used to work in the building where he had his B-Spot burger place (still there but B spot gone). We did get it often but have to say very overrated/overpriced. you might not be old enough to remember the "Where's the Beef" commercials but I think he used the buns from those commercials at this place. Had 5 Guys brought in a lot, too, and thought it was definitely better.

yah...it was def. overpriced......that is for sure..........
