MAKING JAMBALAYA (EASY ONE POT CAJUN DINNER) | SAM THE COOKING GUY

Looks delicious! Just a pro tip or two from Louisiana though: Fry your sausage first until it browns and then add the vegetables in order. Removing the tails from the shrimp and de-veining makes eating nicer, but you should boil the tails (and a few heads if you have them) in your stock to add a more robust flavor.

Do you travel to Louisiana often? Me: Only on a Cajun.

Everyone: amazed at whatever Sam is doing. Me: damn that's one nice looking pan 😍

To sam, chance and max, you guys are so very welcome. I'm still on cloud 9. That meant so much 2 me. I've been getting some many messages today on this video, when I shared it on Facebook. Enjoy your belts guys.

I live in Louisiana. Brown the meat first sam. Take it out then Saute the veges. Sausage won't brown long enough to give enough of a good flavor. If you brown the sausage to the appropriate time the veges will be burnt by then. So brown the meat first then add the veges

Adding tomatoes, traditionally, makes it a creole...but it still tastes good. Pro tip...add a few bay leaves next time. Stuff will be popping!!!

I made it today & just finished eating. One of the best dishes i’ve ever made. Easy to prep and easy to cook. Thanks again Sam!

I would break into this man's house just to eat his leftovers. 😭

Had to substitute Valvoline for avocado oil, still turned out amazing.

THANK YOU SAM! Jambalaya is literally my favorite dish in the whole world. I'm SO GLAD you covered this!

All the people from Louisiana complaining about how the recipe isn't authentic, have you not been here for all the italian and mexican recipes? He knows it isn't authentic, he always puts his own twist on recipes. Just enjoy it for what it is.

I’m born in New Orleans and raised. I don’t understand all the comments. Jambalaya is one of those dishes people can make it their own. Sam never claimed this to be 100 percent authentic Cajun. Different strokes for different folks. I bet this is very tasty. I use smoked sausage and I have never seen anyone make a roux for jambalaya so I don’t know where that comes from either. I have had ALOT of shit called jambalaya over the years so sam having his own version I think is fine. FYI there are two types of jambalaya, red and brown. For those who aren’t from Louisiana

Some people in Louisiana had a heart attack when he pulled out Chorizo.

I’ve been cooking 2 or 3 of Sam’s recipes a week for a few months now. This was by far the best dish so far. So good!

I would love to see an episode on the tools you use, such as different knives, pots and pans, etc. .

I have used this video to make several different versions. Being from the midwest, I use polish sausage after trying several other sausage types (including chorizo and andouille). I also instead of chopping up tomatoes simply use a can of diced tomatoes or Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies. Either way, this is a great video to teach how to cook a one pot meal regardless of its contents. So yummy and experiment to your own regional tastes. This video shows you how to do that and I literally make a variation of this once a month. Always awesome.

Watching your videos has made me cook better even if I havent made the things in your videos other than a burger lmao. You just explain things in a way that genhinely helps me learn. Love your content sam

CANCEL THE PLANS! Doing this tonight. Thx Sam!!

Made this with my husband - our first time trying at jambalaya. DELICIOUS. We followed the recipe exact plus we added 1/2lb of scallops. Thanks! Love your channel.

So easy to make and it's a dish the whole family loves. My wife asks for this every week since I first made it. A also add a chicken breast and sauté the shrimp separate to accommodate someone with a shellfish allergy.
