This was tonight's dinner - crockpot jambalaya. It was
really good. Just needed more Bayou Blast seasoning.
Otherwise it was perfect for me & Steve. I chopped
some thai finger peppers on top of my serving.
Delicious.

NOTES : Risa's notes:

* Bayou Blast is a creole seasoning made by Emeril
Lagasse. Many copycat recipes appear on the 'net and
you can make a big batch or you can buy a jar of it
almost any supermarket these days.

** I would check the shrimp after 45 minutes. Shrimp
cook very quickly normally. 45 minutes should be just
right but do check and make sure they are totally pink
and firm to the touch.

Texas Pete's hot sauce can be found at any
supermarket. If you don't have Texas Petes, use
whatever you have - Tabasco would be fine as it is
from Louisiana. I just like the flavor of Texas Petes
better.
