It is very time consuming, you have to stand there stirring and stirring at a very low temp for like 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Such is my dedication

My grandmother would make me and my cousins take turns stirring, we learned to stay in the woods out of sight when she was cooking gumbo. She switched from lard when we were still kids after my grandfather started having heart problems.
