Clay's Seafood Gumbo #aaayyyeee

Seafood Gumbo Southeast Texas Style ~ I have been on a mission since I was very young to taste and record the best family gumbo recipes handed down in southeast Texas. My mom had her mom's who had her mom's here in southeast Texas. Each generation did something a little different to suit the chef. I have made a point of eating gumbo at the finest seafood places in Texas and Louisiana. I have also read reviews and visited every place in New Orleans with a reputation for gumbo. I'm dead serious and there is one gumbo that stands above the rest! Let me be the first to say, I was never totally disappointed and always loved the various chef's take on this French Creole staple.

The old guard restaurants have been doing it well for decades. Patrons of these restaurants do not want them to change a thing. A discerning pallet will detect the slightest change. It is very possible to eat at different Tex-Mex restaurants for months and never have a bad meal. If you are like me, you have
