Authentic Jambalaya (Thanks Chef Isaac Toups) Roux Method

This Jambalaya is on a totally different level. Cooking the "trinity" in that roux creates a deep complex flavor that can't be described. Cook this and you'll see why Louisiana is so greatly respected when it comes to food.

Insert into the oven for 30 mins guys sorry for leaving that part out!
