Andouille Suggestions

^^^I'm glad you posted that link. I was wanting to try that recipe and forgot all about it. I will almost always say homemade is a better choice than store bought.

The real deal:

That was 10lbs I made, pork butts were $1.79/lb on sale.

We typically don't use andouille in our jambalaya. We use a finer ground, milder smoked pork sausage. Andouille is more commonly found in gumbos and red beans. Although, I'm sure andouille would taste fine in a jambalaya. A store bought smoked kielbasa will be in the ballpark, but that andouille recipe would probably be better.

Don't let the sausage stop you from making a jambalaya. Here in the jambalaya capital of the world, the only protein allowed is chicken at the jambalaya festival. I personally add sausage to my jambalaya and think it adds a great flavor, but you can make good jam without it.
