Description
In my family, we usually have a traditional American-style Thanksgiving, complete with a roasted turkey — but we make that turkey knowing it's destined for gumbo the next day. Like many in Louisiana, turkey gumbo is a post-Thanksgiving must. This recipe is a twist on the classic chicken and sausage gumbo, swapping in turkey instead. We use the carcass to make a rich stock, and the tender pulled meat simmers into the gumbo, creating layers of flavor. Just take your time with the roux, and you'll have delicious turkey gumbo that lasts for days —perfect for freezing, too!
