- Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer and simmmer for up to an hour or until chicken is tender, falling off the bone.
- Remove chicken from stockpot and strain the broth reserving it for the gumbo. Debone the chicken, shred and set aside.
- Take reserved chicken stock and add it back to the stockpot. Add shredded chicken, sausage, veggies, seasonings and bouillon cubes. Bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer for 1 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- In a heavy skillet (I use a cast iron skillet) heat oil on medium high heat.
- Gradually add in flour whisking constantly.
- Note A good roux takes about 30 minutes to make so be prepared to be whisking for a while lol My cajun buddies will tell ya, its done when its 2 beers in! lmao
- Keep stirring until your roux is a dark carmel brown in color. I've added step pics for start, middle and end results for a reference.
- Once roux is finished, slowly add it to your gumbo pot and continue to stir occasionally for another hour.
