I don't understand the reason for using a mix. It's such a simple dish. Because I saw it before I researched what it even was or what went in it. I didn't get it made yesterday. Shooting for tonight or tomorrow night.

I like to put some boudin in with it. It will cook down but gives it a little more bite. Not that you can get boudin there.

There is guy from Louisiana that comes around once per month in a big truck and sells fresh seafood, crawfish boil spices etc. I should ask him about boudin.

Seems like chicken, shrimp and andouille are must haves, but it's one of those regional dishes where what is on hand is what goes into the dish. I don't see a problem with a spice mix if you don't have a full selection of spices in the cupboard.
I have some Cajun friends who will bring back boudin from back home. I wouldn't put it in jambalaya, as I like it just the way it is.

mixes are easy and good to get started, but after that it's more fun to do all the seasoning from scratch
P.S. except for mathman who always takes the easy route

We can get boudin here, but I will use nearly anything else first. I just don't care for that stuff, or at least what we get. It's made local by some Cajun transplants.

I diced celery, onion, green pepper, red pepper, onion and garlic and used chicken broth instead of water like the package said to use. It is really, really good. I'm going to have to freeze most of it because there is way too much to eat soon.

I like Tony's on any meat I pan fry. For other stuff I find it too salty and try to replicate it with Cayenne, paprika and garlic powder.

I don't understand the reason for using a mix. It's such a simple dish. Not everybody handloads either. apples and oranges. Jambalaya won't blow up if you get the amount of trinity wrong.

I've had more than one "blow up" eating spicy foods. Hellava mess. Lends new meaning to "carrying the baton".

If you make it again forget the rice and serve it with pasta. It's then called pastalaya and many, including myself, prefer it to rice. Here is a link: https://www.louisianacookin.com/pastalaya/
