Mardi Gras is in full swing. Fat Tuesday is a great way to pig out. Gumbo fits the bill.
Fat Tuesday is associated with excess because people all over the Christian world knew Ash Wednesday and Lent were going to require sacrifice and quiet reflection.
Whether you're Christian or not, observe Lent or don't, Fat Tuesday is a great opportunity to get out the cast iron Dutch oven and make some Gumbo. See All about Gumbo and Gumbo Step by Step for all the info you need.
