"Nay, it [this constitution of government] must perish, if there be not that vital spirit in the people, which alone can nourish, sustain, and direct all its movements. It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?
– Justice Joseph Story, "Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States," Volume II, Chapter XIII: Mode of Passing Laws, Sections 900-901, pp. 364 (1833)

We eat a lot of gator down this way but I gotta say this was as good as it comes...so tender! And Schawee, That roue needs to be on the cover of roue monthly magazine!
My tongue keeps leaving my mouth and wandering the neighborhood at night looking for more.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

I cooked according to Schawee's recipe and couldn't believe how many ingredients I had to buy. Filled up a basket folks! Dude cooks for twenty five people! BTW, this recipe is good with chicken as well, just don't cook it nearly as long, likely half that time. Could also do it with fish such as redfish in even less time. Some eat picante over rice, I like mine Schawee style over pasta. Of course I'm half Italian and smother the plate down with parmesan cheese, so much that you can't see the plate. Now that's eatin'! Of course Schawee says you ruin it when you do that. Oh, I like mine spicy and add crushed red pepper on top. That some fine eatin' folks! Sorry we couldn't bring this to you before Bud3s as Schawee mentioned I had a family reunion to go to in Magnolia, Ms. ...JP

Thanks Schawee! I ended up drooling like one of my dogs after watching this.  One question, I normally make my roux from flour and butter, equal portions. Have you use a butter based roux before? Do you like the oil based roux better? Thanks JP for the tip of using chicken. Sounds yummy. My GF is Italian a goods dang well. But she hates parmasean cheese. Go figure, eh. Learned something else too. I thought Cajun and spicy were synonymous. Guess not.  Thx again. Jay

thanks for the compliments on my aligator sauce piquante .like jp said you can make it with just about anything ,deer,RABBITS( sorry liz )chicken.beef ,pork . if it walks,swim or fly you can make a sauce piquante with it  .just remember that the sauce needs to cook for at least 3 1/2 to 4 hours.so if its something like chicken i would put it in the last 1 1/2 hours of the cooking time. jay ,i don't make butter rouxs,only rouxs with equal parts of oil and flour .if you let the roux sit for a short time the oil will come to the top and it can be taken out.some cajuns like it hot and some don't and im one that don't  as far as parmesan cheese goes i DON'T put it on because it takes away from the taste .a good cajun would never do that to their piquante  and then there's j p  allen sory about making you feel like that but thats how i know i have a good recipe.  ...schawee one who dont like it hot
