Ingredients

2 Wellshire Smoked Andouille Sausages
12 raw peeled & deveined shrimp about 3/4 a pound
1 8oz Block of full fat cream cheese
1/2 jalapeno pepper
1/2 green pepper
3 celery stalks
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese ( use BLOCK cheese to shred yourself. This ensures the cheese melts properly)
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1/4 cup chicken broth
3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tsp hot sauce
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions

Deseed and dice up 1/2 the jalpeno pepper, 1/2 the green pepper, 3 celery stalks chopped, 1/4 cup of shallots chopped & 3 cloves garlic minced. Add all to frying pan with 1 tbsp olive oil at medium heat. Saute for 3 minutes.
Then add in 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper to the veggie mixture and saute for another 2 minutes.
While the veggies are sauteing, you will chop your shirmp. Take your 12 peeled & deveined shrimp, chop your shrimp into 1/2 inch pieces-- not including the tail. Then add in the chopped shrimp. Mix the shrimp in with the veggie mixture. ONLY COOK FOR 60 SECONDS. Shrimp cooks so fast, it will cook more in the Crockpot, so only for that one minute. Then set the skillet aside off the heat.
Next we will start layering in the Crockpot. First you will pour the 1/4 cup of chicken broth at the bottom of the Crockpot. Then you will add in the block of cream cheese.
After you will add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar, 2 tsp of hot sauce, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tbsp dijon mustard.
Then on top of that you will add in the sautéed veggie shrimp mixture on top
Chop the 2 Smoked Andouille Sausages add on top
Cook on HIGH for 1 hour, then stir until fully combined. Then you will keep on HIGH for another 30-45 minutes, while you stir occasionally until the cheese is full melted.
Then serve with a toasted baguette, tortilla chips and/or veggie!
