Tony's (From the Might be a Cajun thread)...

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

You guys have got me hooked on this stuff. I can't belive I'd never heard of it before...

Anyway - I was shopping today and saw Tony's Jambalaya mix, so I'm cooking that now - smells a lot different from Zatarains...

Ok - it finished simmering and I ate a plate full - wow, this is much better than Zatarains! I can't believe I'm just now discovering this stuff!!!

Can someone get coonassed?

coonassed is a state of mind......i prefer it

Louisiana has many implant coonasses. Once you get a taste of here you are never the same and everything else seems bland.

hmmm Not sure about that. I find the Tony's a little weaker. Did you use a sausage with it?

But, being in SC, it doesn't matter to you, get whatever you cnan of the Jambalaya, Dirty Rice, Red Beans, etc...

And BTW, the Zatarains plant id about 3/4 mile from my house. Nice smell in the morning when the wind blows from that direction. Almost as good as when the coffee plants can be smelled...

I just liked the way the Tony's cooked up better...had a better texture, or it coulda just been that i cooked it better...lol...and yeah I used smoked sausage.

BTW - the only Zatarain's products I DONT like are the microwave dishes...I've yet to find one I like. My new fav. Zat's dish is the Smothered Chicken (it just started showing up around here).

I'm in love w/ the Tony's seasoning though...
