If you're looking for a southern style recipe that ties in a Biloxi favorite, Cafe Jardin in Beau Rivage is the place to go.  Chef Eoin Redmond joined us on The 4:30 Show and showed us how to make this delicious meal.  

The recipe is made for 10 people, but you can make the sauce and freeze it easilly.  Chef Eoin says to pour the sauce into ice trays and freeze it.  Then you can take the frozen sauce and put it in a baggie.  When you're ready to make a dish or two, just thaw the amount of sauce you need!
