Add dark beer, water, beef base, chicken base and bring to a boil. Then add liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce and Louisiana seasoning. Whip some roux into the sauce. Bring to a boil then remove from heat. Put some pre-made rice on a plate, put cooked chicken breast on top of rice and ladle voodoo sauce over the chicken and rice.

Brown Roux: Place oil in a heavy stock pot and heat until it smokes. Slowly whisk in flour, 2 cups at a time, mixing well. Cook in oven at 350 degrees F for about 2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes. Roux is done when chocolate brown color is achieved. Allow to cool.
