Slow Cooker Gumbo image

I saw this recipe deomonstratd on tv during a PBS telethon. It looked so good, that I made a donation in order to get the cookbook. I have not tried this recipe yet, but it sure looked good. Surprisingly, this recipe does not start with a roux, so this isn't quite a traditional version. Adapted from "5 Tastes of the South."

This gumbo is perfect for a cold winter day. It's warm and comforting, and it fills you up without weighing you down.

I'm from Louisiana, and I know a good gumbo when I taste one. This gumbo is the real deal! It's flavorful, hearty, and absolutely delicious.

This gumbo is the best I've ever had! The flavors are incredible, and the chicken and sausage are so tender. I will definitely be making this again and again.

I've never made gumbo before, but this recipe was so easy to follow. The gumbo turned out amazing! My whole family loved it.

This gumbo was way too spicy for my taste. I had to add a lot of sour cream to make it edible.

I'm not a big fan of gumbo, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The gumbo was flavorful and hearty, and the chicken and sausage were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again.

This gumbo was just ok. The flavors were a bit bland, and the chicken was dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This gumbo was delicious! I made it for a party, and everyone loved it. The only thing I would change is to add more okra next time.

This gumbo was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and complex, and the chicken and sausage were cooked to perfection. I especially loved the addition of okra, which gave the gumbo a nice slimy texture.
