This recipe is from Roger's Cajun Cookbook - Favorites by Vernon Roger.
Vernon is a local news guy and, while I have not tried this yet, I did see
him make it on T.V. one day and it looked delicious. Hope you enjoy.

drippings from skillet. Add butter. Add onion, celery, bell pepper and
garlic. Saute' 6 - 7 minutes. Add flour and stir constantly to make a white
