Directions:
Directions:
1. Make the Roux: in a large, heavy bottom stock pot combine flour and oil. Cook on medium-low heat, stirring constantly for 30-45 minutes. This part takes patience--when it's finished it should be as dark as chocolate and have a soft "cookie dough" like consistency. Be careful not to burn! Add a little more flour or oil as needed to reach this consistency.

2. Brown the sausage. in a separate skillet on medium-high heat place the sausage slices in one layer and brown them. Remove to a plate.

3. Cook the vegetables in broth. Add 1/2 cup of the chicken broth to the hot skillet that had the sausage to deglaze the pan. Add remaining 5 1/2 cups chicken broth, veggies, garlic. Cook until tender

4. Add veggies to the roux and bring to a boil over medium heat and boil 5-7 minutes. Stir in cajun seasoning, to taste.

5. Add meat. Add chicken, sausage and shrimp
