If anyone ever gets a chance to stop in Jennings, Louisiana....stop at the Boudon King. You wont be disappointed, I love it spicy.

Scott, are you a Justin Wilson fan? Couldn't find him cooking that on Youtube, but here he is making Gumbo. He used to have a cooking show on PBS a while back.

I love boudin.
One year my cousin Beatrice and I loaded up our stuff for Women's Conference.
Our friends from Alabama picked us up.
We thought we would get a little snack for the trip so we headed over to the local meat market and bought some cold cuts and five pounds of fresh hot boudin.
As soon as we were all in the car we brought out the food.
Our friends from Alabama did not give a good response when seeing the boudin.
Beatrice and I of course being cajun.....were glad. We divided up the five pounds and had it for lunch. Yippee!!!
Boudin does not have to be spicy. Yes in years past we did make blood boudin. It however is not allowed by the FDA any more due to bacterial outbreaks. Also we had what was called black boudin. That is when they cooked to blood first. yikes. We still have festivals in places like St.Martinville, La that do a bouchere. They kill pigs and make boudin and cracklins etc.
Not all cajun food is spicy(of course being cajun I probably don't rate spicy like you do.) We do eat other things besides ground up road kill. We actually make spaghetti and meat balls and meat loaf and roast and potatoes.
However these things do not get the fun response that fried alligator and boudin balls do.(fried boudin without the casing.) We love grillades and make our own and have a passion for gumbo. We don't however like the file that our Cajun cousins who have moved West to Texas do. They can however come visit some time and remember what it's like to be a REAL CAJUN>>>>lol......

I love DJ's boudin... it is a very good boudin we have in the store in Southwest La. some people that have meat market make their own boudin...and it is really good... it is good steamed... some people peel off the skin... I do eat the skin...and it is awesome on the grill because the skin becomes crispy.... Bro. Scott , I told you you should move to La. you are missing some good food LOL

That doesn't go against your dietary laws?
