    Very good! My entire family loved it! It's incredibly aromatic, so tasty, and when there is a crock pot involved, it's so simple. I found that the recipe yields MANY more than 6 servings. - 9/29/09

    It is a cajun seasoning you can normally pick up at in the spice isle in the local grocery store. It makes the dish!

    I also loved this recipe. However, my rice did not cook either. So, I removed it to stove and the rice cooked in a very short time. - 9/14/08

    Hmmm. Maybe putting the rice in sooner would help or cooking the whole thing on high. I know for my slow cooker it only takes about an hour. A friend said that some crock pots differ in time and temp. I don't know? I cooked it last weekend and it worked.
