Made Jambalaya in a cast iron pot on the offset. I've done this before and it turned out well.

Cast iron is all we use here in the Gonzales. La...a.k.a. The Jambalaya Capital of the World. Yours looks like a creole New Orleans style with tomato though....bet it was good.

That's the recipe we found. I'm interested in other recipe if you could share.
 
Sure man...no problem....here is a recipe from a World Champion Jambalaya cook-off winner.

I like to finish in a 350*F oven....even heat means hardly any burn on the bottom.....

Not to hijack a thread (pun intended and not) but have you ever tried making roux in cast iron in an oven? I use that method for all of mine now. I haven't burned a single speck of roux since I started doing that. 350* and stir every 15-20 minutes. I know you make prodigious quantities of the stuff at one time, but for a single batch needed, oven method cannot be beat.

Yes I have made a roux in the oven...and it does work awesome. For a small batch, it is easy, but when doing large batches like I do, The pot is cumbersome to move when you have to stir when doing it in the oven.
