If the sausage is fresh, brown sausage first, then the chicken in oil. If the sausage is
smoked, brown just the chicken, remove from pot. Boil grease until the water evaporates
(clarify the fat), then add flour and make a medium dark roux. Add celery, onion, bell
pepper, and garlic. Simmer, 4 minutes, add tomato, basil and thyme, ground peppers,
Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and bay leaves. Put chicken and sausage back in and
