I have always been a big fan of some good Boudin Sausage, it's hard to find good boudin in most of Texas though. You don't find it at HEB. This stuff comes from the Boudin Kitchen in Sulfer, Louisiana and it's very good. This pack is cooking right now. I've worked with lots of Cajuns & picked their brains, spent a lot of time in Louisiana, watched a lot of Youtube videos on how to make it....I will be making my own soon. After all, I have an endless supply of pork and seafood. I've had some good stuff from a number of places in Louisianne.....but I can't wait to make my own. If anyone is willing to share boudin recipes, I will do the same soon.

I'll be making some next week, I just wing it! Still can't figure out how to make it as "creamy" as the good stuff. Not sure if my fat content is too low or if some of the texture comes from the starch of the rice. Don't forget the green onion tops!

Have not found a good place around Dallas with good Boudin but I'm guessing Nates in Addison might have some good stuff possibly.

I was in Natchitoches this weekend had a link of battered and fried boudin. Blew away any boudin ball I ever had. I prefer it smoked but dang, battered and fried was fantastic.

For store bought, find a Brookshires grocery store. They have a pretty good selection of LA products most of the time. Zummos is ok in a pinch but I like Richards brand if I can find it. HEB usually has some good ones too.

Here's the basics that I use... You have to adjust the amount of ingredients to the amount of boudin you are going to make and your own personal preferences.
Ingredients: Pork butts - deboned, cut into 2 inch chunks, leave fat intact - the fat is your friend. Pork liver cooked rice onions bell peppers celery garlic salt pepper cayenne Tony's seasoning fresh parsley green onion sausage casings
Liberally season pork with Tony's seasoning. In a large pot, brown the seasoned meat in a little oil (in batches). The bottom of the pot will brown with the meat drippings and seasonings - this is a good thing. When finished browning the meat, add water, browned pork pieces, and liver into the pot and bring to low boil. Add chopped onions, bell peppers, celery, garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Simmer until meat falls apart. Remove meat and veggie mixture and keep broth. At this point, you can either shred the meat or run through grinder. Mix meat with rice, fresh chopped green onions, fresh chopped parsley. Taste and adjust seasonings. Add just enough broth to wet the mix enough to efficiently run through stuffer and into casings. Slightly over seasoned is best as the rice will absorb.

The Boudain Shack, aka Chicken on the Bayou, Exit 115 off I-10, Breaux Bridge LA.
Nothing else compares any more. They ship cases for actual UPS shipping costs. Only boudain I'll eat anymore.

I don't know my way around there that well. If you exit the interstate there where raceway/french market gas stations are, there is a road that dead ends across from raceway parking lot. That road goes to Sibley lake. The bait shop on the right on that road sells the deep fried boudin.

Yeah, Breaux Bridge LA. is Boudin Central. Always stop and stock up. few years back was in Breaux Bridge at Charlie T's on a sunday morning buying boudin to bring home. Local guy came in that kinda reminded me of a 50 something year old JJ from Good Times. Got him some fried boudin balls and left. Got my order and got back onto main street. Noticed cars ahead of me swerving around someone. Caught up and it was that fella riding a lawn mower right down the middle of the street in heavy traffic. he took a left turn across traffic, popped the curb into a yard where a landscape crew was working, dropped the deck, and went to mowing while enjoying his breakfast. great moment - great laugh for me...

I make it quite bit. I stopped stuffing it in casings and now just put it in 13x9 pan and bake it. Great for the holidays or taking to camp.
