..I AM native Texan ..

That is a relief !!

I agree on the gumbo, jambalaya. And I make a great pot of either.

I'm not a seafood lover - prefer chicken gumbo to any of it, but I did eat some of the other stuff while there - made Shrimp Sauce Piquante a few times. The 'natives' made gumbo out of EVERYTHING! Redbird, blackbird, duck - everything! LOL
