Directions:
- Make a roux with bacon grease and flour. Be careful not to get it too dark. A light brown roux tastes best in my opinion.
- Add onion, celery and bell pepper. Cook on low to soften them up a bit.
- Add okra and cook for about 20 minutes.
- Add tomatoes and about 5 cups of water. Cook 40 minutes.
- Add shrimp. Cook for an additional 20 minutes.
- Add green onion tops, and cook 10 minutes.
- Serve over white rice.
