Directions
In an 8-quart stockpot, brown flour in bacon drippings over medium heat to make caramel-colored roux, stirring often for about 6 to 8 minutes. Don't allow to scorch. Add onions, celery and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, salt and pepper. Once mixture comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 hour.*
Add shrimp, crab meat and okra. Bring back to a boil. Reduce and simmer for 15 minutes. Add oysters and cook for 5 more minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce and remove from heat. Stir well. Serve over rice with a bottle of hot sauce on the side.
