Now If you are going to make it yourself, you have 2 options
fast.
top of the stove. but be extremely careful because you will burn the stufff really fast. it takes 20 to 25 minutes and you have to stir 100% of the time. NO BREAKS
long (prefered)
oven. just keep it wet.
what ever way, start with a one to one ratio. oil and flour. use a good oil like Peanut, canola, corn, veggie.
you want it to be runny. once it is cooked let it set and a lot of the oil will rise to the surface and you can drain.

I can live with the bottled but cannot find it anywhere in Fort Lauderdale Florida. Gumbo down here is the equivalent of chicken soup.
My wife uses olive oil in her roux. I want to make my own Gumbo and a pastor in Vidor Texas made the best gumbo I have ever had. If I could only duplicate that gumbo I would be very happy.
