That's a no for me. Although I do make a version of jambalaya with no seafood and extra spicy. I love the heat and the seasonings but I'll pass on crawfish, shrimp and anything else that filters shit as a food source.

Out of all the dishes you mentioned, only Gumbo is a uniquely USA dish. Jambalaya is an African recipe with an ingredient change to match what was available. Mudbugs are eaten everywhere where they are present, and I personally think that Polis Zupa Rakowa is the best usage of that ingredient. If were talking about the mudbug boil, every cousine I know of that has access to them have similar recipe. Blackened redfish is uhhh... Hot pan with spices to pretend its grilled (ingenious, but not a unique dish https://www.foodrepublic.com/1631780/origin-why-redfish-banned/) Crawfish etouffee - huh, I think it's also an invention. The cooking method and igredients seem to be unique enough that its visibly distinct from any other similar dish that I know of and could check the recipe of. Courtbullion on the other hand is too similar to French one that I would call it a variation, instead of an unique invention. (Does that make sense? I'm not trying to diminish other foods but to showcase how unique Gumbo and etouffe are)
