cups all-purpose flour  
tablspoon baking powder  
teaspoons sugar  
/2 teaspoon baking soda  
/2 teaspoon salt  
1/2 tablespoons cold butter  
/4 cup buttermilk  
Make the gumbo: In a heavy medium skillet, combine 3 tablespoons of the oil  
with the flour and cook over moderatly low heat, stirring occasionally,  
until the roux is dark mahogany in color, about 1 hour. Do not let burn.  
Immediately remove from heat.  
In a medium flameproof casserole, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with the  
remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add the sliced sausage and cook over moderate  
heat until well browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted  
spoon. Add the ham strips to the casserole and cook until lightly browned,  
about 7 minutes; add to the plate with the sausage slices.  
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the onion to the casserole. Cook  
over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until softened and translucent,  
about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to moderately low and add the garlic,
