I made this recipe without any changes and it was fantastic. I did use cajun deer sausage and it really made the dish very flavorable. I would highly recommend this recipe.

I had this recipe years ago and somehow lost it. I have finally found it! Everything is the same. It is delicious. It has a lot of kick to it. It's even better the next day. BEWARE! The heat gets a little higher as it sits, but nonetheless fantastic. Good cold weather dish.It can be made on the stove in about 4hrs. Bay leaves are a little tricky to get out. Good things come to those who wait.
