Carla Hall's Swamp Thing

I am going to try this recipe from The Chew, The actual recipe can be found here.

I will not make it exactly the same because I will need to adjust it for what my husband and I do not like. Although I will probably keep some things in it that my husband doesn't like. I will just leave that out of his :)
