"This spicy and flavorful gumbo is best served over rice. It's a nice change from gumbos cooked with a roux."

We have a load of striper that we caught on Lake Texoma and needed different recipes. This was yummy! I didn't have any shrimp but it turned out delightful! Thanks! We will make this again only with the shrimp!

Good recipe. Allows for a lot of experimenting. I think next time I use it I'll not use fish but thats a personal preference. Rather soupy if you are looking for a thick gumbo. I thought it was quite good for a thick spicy soup.

This gumbo was easy and delicious. Great comfort food, it makes you feel warm and good inside. I left out a few of the herbs because I'm a beginner and I didn't want to complicate things, but it was still delicious! This is the kind of recipe you want to cook for other people so you can show off. ;)

This recipe was okay. I was looking for a gumbo recipe that did not use butter as a roux and something special for New Years. I was a little confused with the dry crab boil. The store had many varieties of crab boils including the liquid. I ended up buying the kind in the cheese clothe (big mistake) The little seeds were a bit annoying. I think I was suppose to buy a powder kind. I wish that had been specified in the recipe. I also added smoked turkey sausage which gave it a good taste. I also added a little cornstarch to thicken it just a bit. My husband and the kids ate it. So.... I think they liked it. My husband rated it a five because I made it. Would I make it again? Not unless they ask for it.

Great! It's a real comfort food. We added sausage and substituted cod for catfish. We loaded it with the seafood and meat. Served over rice, there is plenty left over to freeze.
