BBQ Creole Sauce Picante

[queball]

thought you guys might enjoy this. I had some leftover smoked thighs and green onion sausage which I turned into a really good creole Sauce Picante. Here you go. In a skillet make a one to one roux, really dark. In a large sauce pot, render a package of bacon, chop and save bacon. In the bacon fat saute a bunch of chopped onions and garlic. Add a can of tomato paste and brown. Add the deboned chopped thighs and sliced sausage and sautee with a little chicken stock for moisture. Add large can of tomato sauce, large can of hot Rotel and large can of petite diced stewed tomatos. Add remainder of carton of chicken stock and a handful of raw sugar. Add the roux to thicken and let simmer for about 2 hours. Consistency is the key with sauce picante. Finish by folding the chopped fried bacon and a little chopped green onion into the mix during the last 10 minutes. Serve on rice. Ca Cest Bon.

You know I am really bad with the whole picture thing, dont even have much video of my kids. Unless someone is taking pictures I usually forget all about it. And, I am technologically challenged.

I lived in Nawlins for 4 years. It's been too long since I had some great coonass food!!

How about a recipe for that green ownyawn sausage????

Coonass food will make you happy. And leftover BBQ goes so well in so many dishes: jambalaya , gumbo, red beans, sauce picante, etc.

I make Italian sausage now and then, mostly at Christmas time. Time and trouble. My butcher makes excellent fresh sausage, including the green onion which is my favorite.

Damn! I'm selling some brisket dinners tomorrow. If I have some leftover brisket I might just try brisket picante...

Done it. Very good. I like to cut the sugar just a little with beef and use beef broth or french onion soup instead of chicken broth.
