To make the roux, in a large Dutch oven over medium heat, combine the oil and flour. Cook, stirring constantly until becomes a reddish-brown color, approximately for 30 to 40 minutes. Be careful not to burn.
Add to the roux the onions, bell pepper and celery, stirring, about 5 minutes; add broth. Bring to a boil, stirring to incorporate roux, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.

Skim from the top any fat that surfaces.
