Question about andouille sausage vs Other sausages for Jambalaya

I like Andouille, but a local place makes a good, spicy italian sausage that has a nice late kick that i enjoy. Would it matter which i used?
Also, size of shrimp? 26/30 30/40?
Have the F&D cook book to use for the recipe.
Also, any extra tips? try small crock pot to test?
Last thing, any good Veggie, Jambalaya recipes. Wife wants to try it, but is a vegetarian. She makes good veggie chili, and the such.

Believe it or not, yes. I made one with egg plant, yellow squash, yellow bell peppers, and purple rice. It has a cool color and tastes good. The only problem is there is no fat from the sausage, so you have to cook it a little different.
I’ll try to find my recipe when I get home.

I've used smoked pork, ham, regular smoke sausage, real andouille like the kind from Bailey's in Laplace, chicken and sometimes, when available, game meat in my jambalaya.
It is a pretty forgiving dish as far as meat ingredients.
Now, chili without meat is not chili, it is just red gravy with cumin, chili powder and whatever else your lady uses in her recipe. But it ain't chili.

Would greatly appreciate. I would try that as well.

I've had jambalaya made with fresh green onion sausage and it was real good. Just cook your sausage in the pot, take it out and slice it. As far as shrimp, I rather smaller shrimp. Put them in right before you add tour stock. Cook the water out of them, add stock then rice.

Generally speaking, Ville platte has some of the best smoked meat. Sausage, tasso beef jerky etc.
Also
The word andouille gets thrown around pretty loosely outside of Cajun country. Real andouille I would not recommend for jambalaya.

You're going to get downvoted, but people do not realize what it actually is.

Have some family members who don't care for andouille, so I rarely use it anymore. I've really gotten to prefer a good quality smokey sausage. I prefer the texture also.
