Here's the official Tabasco jambalaya recipe (or at least one of them
:)):

1/2 lb. fresh pork
1 onion
1 clove garlic
1/2 lb. cured ham
6 small smoked pork sausages
2 Tbs. butter
1 bay leaf
1 sprig parsley
1/4 tsp. thyme
1 whole clove
2 c. beef or chicken broth
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
3/4 tsp. salt (don't add if you use bouillon for broth)
1 c. uncooked rice

Cut pork (lean and fat) into cubes about 1/2" square.  Chop onion and
garlic very fine.Dice ham and cut sausage into pieces.  Melt butter in
a heavy iron pot or dutch oven.  Add onion, garlic, pork and ham;
brown slowly, stirring frequently.  Add sausage, bay leaf, parsley,
thyme, and clove; cook about 5 minutes.  Add broth, Tabasco, and salt;
bring mixture to a boil.  Add washed rice.  Cover and simmer gently
1/2 hour or more until rice is tender.  Stir often to mix well.
Season to taste.  Makes 4 to 6 servings.

We omit the pork and ham (my husband is not a pork fan) and throw in a
can of broken shrimp for a seafood flavor.  It's very good, but can
get greasy...
