I created this recipe when we were camp hosting in Sedona. The Meat Mixture can be split into 4 individual Food Saver baggies and frozen for later use. It’s great for either a low carb diets or regular dirty rice. Either way it tastes like it came from traditional Cajun kitchen!

- In skillet sauté bell pepper, onion, garlic, and celery. Once translucent, add bacon, beef, pork, and liver back into skillet.
