With Mardi Gras right around the corner, I was inspired to create a homemade Smoked Sausage Jambalaya to bring a little taste of New Orleans to our dinner table. It’s said that the Jambalaya dish origin was created by mixing French and Spanish cuisines together, now considered “American Creole.” Whatever the history, it’s a flavor fest for your tastebuds, a sweet spicy heat and very satisfying and cozy meal. Makes 6-8 servings.
I wanted to keep it as authentic as possible, so I used Poppa Earles Cajun Seasoning that was created and is made right in the heart of “Cajun country.” So, turn that jazz music up and let’s get to cooking. OoooooWeeeee…I GARONTEE it’s gonna be delicious! (Sorry, my Justin Wilson enthusiasm came out of me…must have been all those years growing up watching him on PBS, ha!)
