Steps:
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat and stir in the flour, sprinkling a little at a time and whisking inches Whisk slowly and constantly for 20 to 25 minutes to make a dark brown roux, the color of chocolate.
- If you get black specks in your roux it is burned and you will have to start over.
- Add the onions, celery, okra and bell peppers and continue to stir for 4 to 5 minutes, or until wilted.
- The mixture will be pasty and fairly dry.
- Add the sausage, ham, salt, cayenne, pepper, and bay leaves and stir well.
- Cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the stock or broth and stir well to combine with the roux mixture.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
- Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour.
- Add the chicken and cook just until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley, Pickapeppa Sauce and green onions.
- Ladle into deep soup bowls over rice.
- Serve with hot sauce, if desired.
