I made this according to the recipe. It was very good. The whole family liked it. I did add some extra broth after the first 45 minutes and I would probably add even a bit more next time. I would also up the meat. Definitely do the whole pound of sausage and perhaps add some chicken. Definitely a do over!<\/p>","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"10\/25\/2012 23:23","GUID":"532dbf4ea2924f5a9835860858fcbf22","MemberId":3847277,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"dordor363","SubmittedDate":"10\/25\/2012 23:23"},{"Comment":"
I made this just like the recipe with no substitutions. It is absolutely amazing. I have never had Jambalaya before but thought this was so good that I could almost picture myself eating in New Orleans.<\/p>","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"03\/15\/2012 19:53","GUID":"753a0c838be249ec99f0ec8005c5167a","MemberId":2138935,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"margo1976","SubmittedDate":"03\/15\/2012 19:53"},{"Comment":"

I never comment on these things, but I had to for this recipe. This was AMAZING! So easy to make and full of flavor! We like heat, so I added crushed red pepper flakes and extra hot sauce. Will definitely be making this again! Thank you so much!<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"10\/19\/2011 08:47","GUID":"c62fcf53aa754c5799db802e88cb24ee","MemberId":3795426,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"tania511","SubmittedDate":"10\/19\/2011 08:47"},{"Comment":"

I'm not normally a big fan of jambalaya, but this was really good. Mine looks much drier than the picture so before we actually dig in I'll probably add more liquid. Outside of chicken instead of shrimp I followed the recipe and had fun making it.

This recipe is by far one of the best I have made in a long time! I made this in a dutch oven and it worked great and used a 14.5 oz can of broth and that seemed about perfect.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"04\/16\/2011 13:57","GUID":"b50fb845eeab4befb60265a6f7771819","MemberId":5935691,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"amyga","SubmittedDate":"04\/16\/2011 13:58"},{"Comment":"

YUM! Didn't have andouille so I pre-cooked some sweet italian sausages and used them along with some cheddar\/turkey sausages I had in the freezer. Went heavy on the Creole and the hot pepper sauce and it was awesome! I added another splash of beef broth before the last 15 min. of covered cooking time. The rice cooked perfectly without being mushy or crisp.<\/p>","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"03\/12\/2011 18:05","GUID":"07e09fd156294194bd12a01f5d1b411a","MemberId":1888410,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"amytime99","SubmittedDate":"03\/12\/2011 18:05"},{"Comment":"

We loved the flavors of this jambalaya, but for some reason the rice wouldn't cook. I'm pretty sure the rice must have been old. Definatley making it again!

I'll be honest, when I first mixed up the soup, broth, and tomato sauce this didn't look appetizing and as I put it in the oven I questioned whether this was going to be any good. It's delicious! My family loved it and I thought the leftovers were even better (except for the shrimp of course).<\/p>","CommentId":18,"DateRated":"02\/26\/2011 08:28","GUID":"0E27464B34084EC4B404DA7AE9C894ED","MemberId":620927,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"asabot","SubmittedDate":"02\/26\/2011 08:28"},{"Comment":"
