You need to add flavor to the Rice, its the only reason soy sauce was invented 🤣 the " Rice taste being overpowering" is something I never heard in my 15 kitchen years. 🤣 too much Rice per ratio maybe, but the "flavor" of Rice being overpowering? She definetly was petty to make sure she won

I have seen people give constructive criticism, but this is just rudeness. Sherry was the nicest. She just needs to season her food. Maybe she has someone in the family with high blood pressure or something but there are alternatives..

[@Olivia-co8pg]

My grandmother, born in 1886 in coastal South Carolina, made a wonderful, dark gumbo. She always used okra as a thickener and added more before serving, the sassafras being used as a sprinkled seasoning. Her gumbos/stews usually had heaps of seafood, but you might also find, chicken, squirrel, or rabbit. By the way, a friend from the Caribbean (Barbados?) always brought or sent her sassafras--all parts of the plant--with which she made her own file and my grandfather made a rather strong rootbeer. She would not use the sassafras available on the mainland, but I never learned why. Any ideas?

Ikr she’s so stuck up and annoying, can’t cook either!

[@YouTubeReady]

I think she means that they put too much rice in the bowl…because gumbo is really a soup.

[@Chicago.hottie]

Literally was thinking this like girl if you a hater just say that 🙄 craziest thing I ever heard

[@preciousjahi8524]

Bre gumbo looks watery and Ms.Erma's gumbo looks good that lady who was tasting everybody's gumbo didn't even eat a spoon full to get the taste

[@anniacopeland8321]

She must be a second generation creole she wasn’t with her mama💀💀💀😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

[@Angie_Onaleta]

The fact that Brianna said SAUCE! Girl, it's roux! 😅 and how is the rice overpowering!?!? The first lady look like she made a bisque! 🤣. Erma's definitely looked more authentic

[@chatwithchante]

Brianna: the sauce… Me: *mutes her parts in the video* As a Louisiana native… I shook my head several times but Erma made me SCREECH with that whispering like she ain’t hooked up to a mic 🤣🤣🤣

[@chocolatebaby852]

“Taste like chicken noodle soup”😂😂

[@serenaraquel7804]

I'm like um ma'am gumbo don't have noooo sauce ... its roux baby !!!

[@lowfrrequency2235]

Erma is an angel and the young one was just annoying

[@ebonyruffin8694]

I too was like sauce? Lol

[@NewBeginningNewCreation]

Hi

[@missbeafromnyc]

i wouldn’t know what this is, since i was born and raised in NY, but it looks so good 😫 reminds me of my ma’s cooking

[@BluuJourney]

I'm sitting here thinking to myself how is RICE overpowering. Y'all brought back the It's Smoky, flavorful but too-juicy pork Chef back🤣

[@Cavemanbc]

Brianna a bird nobody asked for her secret California recipe, Sherry didn't even try Erma's gumbo she literally had a small piece of chicken no okra and cheated Erma out that win. They got the score right without Sherry, Erma won imo. ✊🏿

[@chefsherryg.7239]

Stay out of Louisiana ppl business! I was suppose to be able to taste a shrimp and be in love! Our good aunt Erma just didn’t have it! Don’t shoot the messenger! 🤷🏽‍♀️

Thank you I’m not from down south at all but I got a heart like one and let me say Erma won that one her gumbo looked so delicious and I hate okra but I’m pretty sure I would have loved her gumbo

[@DreamerxPunk]

@@chefsherryg.7239 Gumbo isnt just about shrimp tho so you basically admitted that you judged unfairly. you were judging their interpretation of Gumbo, not what YOU expect.

[@TheQueenPo]

I understand this is likely filmed in LA, so the pool of Louisiana ppl to choose from is small BUT y’all could’ve at least chose ppl who know what a ROUX is 🥴

[@sparklesp9304]

Yeah, but a lot of black people in California came from Texas and Louisiana, so it's their heritage.

[@katilynbell5979]

They did describe it as roux

[@jinnieslabios9467]

Exactly...like why would she disrespect it talking bout "the sauce blah blah" UH WHAT SAUCE?? You mean the ROUX wasn't dark enough? I mean at least use the correct terminology before you start hating

[@yazmenecanty6018]

i only came to the comments to see what other people were saying and i’m glad we all agree!

[@kyliechristina234]

I love that so many people are in comments rightfully saying that Erma should have won. She was so cheated out of that win!

[@MsRose00]

Sherry was the only one not being catty. She just needs to season her food but her disposition wins. The other two, especially Brianna, were doing the most. And how y’all gonna have Sherry (the chef that likes burnt food) be the tie breaker? Nah. A “do over”please!

[@AwwwSnap77]

Right...I was happy with the first set of scores, then Sherry appeared...😩 I don't trust her judgement, lol.

[@chefsherryg.7239]

I’m from New Orleans born and raised! None of it was gumbo! Only thing that should be in question is if any of them are really from Louisiana! Because all of it was trash! 🤷🏽‍♀️ I’m just the messenger! None of them even had a accent but me the judge! 🤷🏽‍♀️

i’m not even from Louisiana but i can tell they aint either

[@DonataNevaeh]

the unbiased judge was probably the only one that is really from there

[@juggeygaming6870]

as a native Louisianan I can confirm the unbiased judge is from New Orleans as I know her

[@creolescorpionke9482]

They’re definitely from Louisiana. I’m creole as well and definitely can tell my people lol but when you move to another state and live there for so many years your accent definitely goes away which sucks

[@bridgetteliggons634]

I know Erma and she is definitely from Louisiana....

[@abellady]

I'm from Louisiana born and raised, still here and they need to throw the whole episode away. There is different levels to our cooking here all over this great state.

[@dmitriagnes]

Finally! Thank you. ⚜️

[@godj2ii]

Gotta have a part 2

[@kaelabattles6624]

Y’all should do dressing, peach cobbler, greens, Turkey necks, for us down south lol

[@reginadavis7499]

Yasss don't leave us out. I can cook done dressing

[@NIYAHSSWRLDD]

They did peach cobbler before

[@mevludinandnikole]

Man now I want some turkey necks

[@SummerFrank]

They have one with sweet potato pie.

[@nadaracoplin1124]

definitely collard greens

[@aaronb5796]

Re Shoot the whole episode with real Louisiana natives….the best creole cooks come from Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Lake Charles……. P.S no accent = no flavor😂

[@UniquelyImani]

No accent no flavor 😂 facts!

[@ByondAvrg]

No accent no flavor 😂 a truth ya talk

[@LisaLi007]

Ok! I said this soon as I heard them talk

[@diamondslife6636]

Thank you 💓

I'm from Lake Charles...I don't have an accent and my food is 🔥!!! Don't be fooled by that accent.🤣

[@kittylover177]

“It’s could be from the box.” I am picturing that green box and laughing my butt off. 🤣 My fiancé and I live in New Orleans for a bit and he is shaking his head. But I do agree, the color for the middle Gumbo was best.

[@b1njjj95]

We need to protect Sherry at all costs! Her reactions had me DYING! 🤣🤣

[@aleeshaj8673]

Justice for Erma , that won was stolen and y’all know it, that tie breaker was not needed at all

[@geeano9232]

@cocoabutter please get better contestants (4 rather than 3 to add variety, who have been recommended as good home cooks) and it’ll transform this good show into awesome.

[@MalkavianGhoul]

I'm just gonna pretend that last part didnt happen because there wasnt a need for a tie breaker when there wasn't a tie and Erma was the real winner here. Briana talking about rice being too overpowering like she couldn't even think of a real hate on Erma's when her's was a good color, but was lacking

[@user-vz7wd2mg1w]

“JUICY like I like it” that took me out 💀💀

#bringErmaback

[@franklinreese7922]

Erma won hands down……I love her sense of humor…Did y’all catch on when she said Raquel must didn’t hang with her mama because her gumbo wasn’t made right😭😭😭😭😭. Brianna was a straight up hater attitude straight up horrible…

[@sharonanderson5619]

Why they even brought that Sherry girl there in the first place, the other girl one

[@yerimarchai3483]

The last lady would be mad at me then, I put corn on the cob in my gumbo

[@jasonford6595]

The fact she said it tastes like California gumbo and they're both living in LA....that's something...

[@SummerFrank]

Go Erma! Showing off your gumbo skills, representing all of Eunice and Southwest Louisiana. Your citified country twang had me cracking up! You were whispering like there wasn't a camera in ya face............but, it's ok, that was the Eunice in you coming out🤣🤣🤣

[@collinsterry0208]

Facts! The 337 got some of the best cooks. And some towns in my 225 🔥
