Replaced the ham hock with a smoked turkey leg and then diced up the turkey meat into the soup afterwards. Yummy!

Excellent recipe. I love making this for myself and my husband. My children don't particularyly like it, but they are really picky. We never have throw any way, even though my husband and I are the only ones who eat it in my house, we eat on it for a couple of days.

Really, really yummy. Certainly needs more cajun spice, though. As per recipie the soup is quite mild. Doubling it might give it a bit more kick next time.

If you like Cajun cooking, you'll like this recipe. Not highly spicy.

Mmm! This was excellent, though I left out the ham hock (hate ham), Next time I will add more beans and more green pepper, and possibly also some broccoli for extra nutrition. I also used about 3 times the Cajun spice called for. My boyfriend added a few slices of pepperoni to the leftovers and thought that was tasty, though I remain skeptical...

Great soup for a cold winter day! Didn't have andouille so substituted with a spicy and grainy sausage that I can find locally. Didn't have a ham hock on hand so added extra bacon, it worked, but I'll use a ham hock next time. Will add a bit more cajun seasoning next time for our preference. Served with rice and cornbread on the side, both worked great. Thank you for this delicious soup!

This recipe was GREAT the only thing is that it took a little bit longer to make than I thought it would. Next time I would use pre-cooked bacon instead of regular bacon. I used less broth as well and substituted Kielbasa for Sausage. Very yummy!!

This was SOOOO yummy!! I made it last night and it was DELICIOUS. Changes I made: I used polish kielbasa as andouille sausage is hard to find. I put in the whole package as I wasn't about to leave half a package in the fridge. I left out the bacon as it really doesn't need it and it's too fattening. I left out the ham hock as the store only had them in packs of three and I wouldn't use the others. I'd imagine that they'd give the dish even MORE flavor, though... I added three cans (about 6 cups) of broth as 8 cups seemed like a lot to me and I wanted it to be thicker. I topped it with the rice, sliced green onions, a small dollup of fat free sour cream, and some shredded colby jack cheese. Serve it with cornbread and you have a heartwarming dish on a cold day!

My 83 year old mother loves this recipe as do I. I didn't have the ham or as much andouille as needed but used some kielbasa. Turned out great!

Very good. I've made this twice for my husband's "Cajun" day at work and it received high marks both times. In fact, his coworker (who lived in Louisiana for man years) thinks this is very good! Will make again.

This was a great recipe. I did it in the slow cooker and used mild andouille, less cajun spice and more rice for the kids and everyone ate it up. Will make this again!

This was delicious. The entire house was filled with the great smell of cajun cooking while I was preparing this! I added an extra cup of stock halfway through cooking, some cayenne pepper, and extra seasonings, but otherwise stuck to the recipe as written. Right down to the smoked ham hock. We really enjoyed this. If you're on a low-carb diet, just skip the rice and this will be the perfect dish for you. Thanks Holly!

Did not have the sliced andouille sausage so I used the pepperoni I did have -- it turned out so good I can't see myself ever using anything else. LOVED this recipe.
