BOONE'S JAMAICAN GUMBO
This is a fast, easy recipe for a Caribbean gumbo utilizing very few ingredients, some of which aren't even indigenous to Jamaica but are staples of Creole-style gumbos. The central element of any gumbo is the roux, and in this case we're using Fish Tea, a traditional Jamaican soup that can take 4 hours to make from scratch. Obviously, if you want to have some fun and you have the time on your hands you're free to learn that recipe elsewhere, but I recommend using the packaged fish bouillon sold in grocery stores (specifically the Grace brand). As usual, feel free to substitute in/out ingredients where desired. For instance, I left out okra because it tends to make the gumbo too slimy, but you can add it. Same goes for any traditional Caribbean food you'd like to include.

Steps:
- Get your chicken going first, as it will take the longest (30-40 minutes). In the meantime, also get your rice cooking (20 minutes).
- Bring a separate pot to boil with the Fish Tea in it, then reduce to a simmer for 5-7 minutes. Brown the sausage while the Fish Tea simmers, drain corn, and everything should finish about the same time.
- Finely chop the chicken breasts and slice sausage. Add to rice along with the drained corn. Add all into large pot and keep warm. Serve with toasted English muffins or other bread. Add calypso sauce for extra spice.

CAJUN GUMBO
Steps:
- Boil chicken pieces in 1 gallon of lightly salted water for approximately 1 hour, or until done. Reserve the chicken broth for the base of the gumbo.
- Wash okra and dry with a paper towel. Cut off the ends of the okra and slice into round pieces. Saute the pieces in a skillet with 1/2-cup of the butter until all of the slime has left the okra. This takes 1/2 hour to 45 minutes. You must stir the okra throughout this process to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Saute the onion, green pepper, and celery in remaining 1/2-cup butter until lightly browned. Place the cooked okra and onion mixture into the chicken broth. Add the basil, thyme, bay leaves, and garlic to the broth. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove skin and bones from chicken, and cut into bite sized pieces, and set aside. Add the chicken, sausage, and ham to the broth at the same time. Return mixture to a boil. Add the shrimp and crabmeat, and cook for another 5 minutes. Season with file, black pepper, and hot pepper, to taste.
- Serve with rice.

REAL CAJUN GUMBO (FROM A LOUISIANAIAN)
All the gumbos you find that have tomatoes or okra are not cajun. That is creole. These are two completely different cultures. Cajun is a simple, cheap, tasty, country, low swamp land culture. Creole, is a higher class, city folk, type of culture that requires more expensive and extensive ingredients. Do not use more andouille than the recipe calls for, or I promise you will regret it! Please do not season with hot sauce on your plate, it is rude. For cheap, tasty andouille, order from the original makers of cajun andouille at www.cajunsausage.com.

- Add onions, celery, bell pepper and garlic. Sauté 3-5 minutes or until vegetables are wilted.
- Blend in chicken and andouille. Sauté approximately 15 minutes.
- Add chicken stock, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly until all is incorporated.
- Bring to a rolling boil, reduce to simmer and cook approximately 1 hour.
- Skim any fat or oil that rises to the top of the pot.
