Man I thought this was great!! I am not much on seafood, but sure love tasty 1 bowl dishes.. I had to tone down the spices cause I had to feed it to the little ones, plus I didn't have spicy V8, just regular, but it was still delicious!!! Could have used a tad more ZING but I'm sure that would be there if I followed the recipe exactly. GREAT DISH! Hit the spot and great way to make catfish! (tired of cornmeal nuggets)

My hubs was doing the happy dance tonight while eating this. I used all of the leftover seafood I made and froze over our vacation. A bit of everthing went into this; lobster, shrimp and clams as well as kielbasa and some corn which I cut off of the cob. Use as little or as much as you like of whatever you have in the fridge and it will turn out great. Served this with a salad and some nice hot Italian bread which was used to sop up the wonderful broth. Thanks so much Susan!! :)

This was really good! I followed the recipe to a tee, except I didn't used spicy V8 and I didn't use cayenne pepper. My family doesn't like spicy foods, I do though! At the end I just seasoned it with salt to our taste.

Easy and delicious, my husband who doesn't 'do' leftovers loved it and ate it more than one night.

This gumbo was super easy to make. My hubby thought it was pretty good but I thought it needed a bit more of "something" but now quite sure what. I give it a 5 for ease of prep and a 4 for flavor. Great quick recipe to have when you feel like gumbo but don't want to slave all or spend the money! Thanks!

This was really tasty especially on a cold night. Just the right amount of zing.
