I think I will try this recipe, thanks!!! 🙂
You had me at “Conecuh”.
Will be making this soon.
This recipe looks really delicious. I didn’t have everything it called for when I tried it this afternoon so I made a few adjustments. In place of the bacon and pork, I used two chicken thighs that I boiled and used for broth. Later I took the chicken out and shredded it, before putting it back in the soup. I didn’t have tomatoes with green chili so I used a can of fire roasted tomatoes. The sausage I used was Aidells Cajun Style Andouille, which was delicious. I also added Tony Chachere’s Creole Seasoning, as well as fresh garlic and basil from my garden and everything else that the recipe called for. The whole thing turned out really good. I’ll probably make it again soon.
i like the idea with the garlic i love garlic id put it in everything if they would let me
i can’t get conecuh sausage!!!!! i wish i could…… it sounds delicious
