Instructions:

  1. Begin by placing the turkey carcass in a large soup kettle and covering it with water. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer over low heat for 1 1/2 hours, allowing the flavors to infuse.

  2. Drain the turkey, but don’t discard that precious broth โ€“ reserve it for later use. Remove the meat from the carcass, chop it into bite-sized pieces, and set it aside.

  3. In the same kettle, heat the bacon drippings. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, stirring constantly until a rich brown roux forms. This should take around 25 minutes, and the aroma will let you know you’re on the right track.

  4. Add the finely chopped onions, minced garlic, diced green pepper, and sliced celery to the roux. Cook until the vegetables are tender, releasing an enticing fragrance that will have everyone asking, “What’s cooking?”

  5. Pour in the reserved turkey broth and chicken broth, then add the salt, pepper, bay leaves, parsley flakes, and dried basil leaves. Let it all simmer together for an hour, allowing the flavors to meld into a savory symphony.

  6. Time to introduce the star of the show โ€“ add the chopped turkey and sliced smoked sausage to the pot. Let them dance in the flavorful broth for an additional 15 minutes, absorbing all the goodness.

  7. Finally, toss in the green onions and any remaining ingredients that haven’t had their moment yet. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, ensuring every spoonful is a perfect blend of textures and tastes.

  8. Serve your Turkey Bone Gumbo over hot cooked rice, creating a satisfying bowl that is sure to warm hearts and bellies alike.
