User Reviews:

Where did you get this recipie? I was born and raised in Baton Rouge and I have never eaten any jambalia that is made quite this way! You do not put seafood or ham in there. And you never use ham in Jambalaya or in Gumbo for that matter!A Good idea for jambalaya could include anything from chicken and saussage to turkey or even squrrell or some other poor woodland creature for that matter, but not seafood or ham! If you want seafood, try a good gumbo!
