Saturday night in Louisiana, you can be pretty sure they're havin Jambalaya.
You
 will need:1 pound of Sweet Italian 
Sausage or Sweet Brats and about one pound (depending on number of guests) of jumbo frozen 
shrimp (thawed/tail removed prior to cooking), onion, cayenne pepper, rice and hot 
sauce.
To
 begin, chop one onion and saute in olive oil until browned. Push aside 
in the skillet and drop the sausage (casing removed) as small bit sizes 
into the skillet to brown. Next, bring the onion back in over onto the 
sausage and add your spices: cayenne pepper, garlic powder, coriander, red pepper flakes,
 black pepper and salt. Add about 1/4 cup of beef stock, 
stir and cover to let simmer on low.
Prepare to cook 
the rice. Boil water about 2 and 1/2 cup with a pinch of salt, pour in 1
 and 1/2 cup of long grain rice. If you are having more than 4 guests, 
double this.
When the rice is done, 
drain and pour out onto a serving plate. Then pour out the sausage 
and shrimp in sauce (any
 remaining juices) from the skillet on top of the rice.
Get out your favorite hot sauces and beverage - and whew wee!
