I miss the food from Louisiana. Every time I’m there, I bring back food. Chad loves Hackett’s, which is way south in Lake Charles and always far from everywhere we’re going to be. Hackett’s closes at 3 on Saturday so after my aunt’s memorial service, before we went to the reception, we ran out to Hackett’s and bought boudin and sausage.
Boudin and Sausage
I bought mild boudin, crawfish boudin, andoille and rabbit sausage from Hackett’s and then we stopped at Peto’s, which is where I like to get sausage and I got green onion sausage and smoked boudin.
Cajun Food Bucket
My “cajun food bucket” was almost empty. There’s a bit of andouille and tasso still in there but I piled all the new stuff in and stuck it back in the freezer.
Inside the Freezer
Back in the freezer. If I’m conservative, this stuff will last til I’m back in Louisiana in a couple of months.

And it even has it’s own shelf! HA!! A guy I knew a long time ago was from LA somewhere and always talked about boudin. I’ve never tried it and probably never will (since I really don’t cook much). My son loves Razoo’s but I don’t so that’s probably my barometer on cajun food.

I remember not being able to get this stuff last minute when I wanted it. Glad you were able to stock up.

Judy, could you please explain what all of this stuff is? I know what sausage is but haven’t a clue about boudin or the other stuff.
