Boudin sausage
-
I grew up with excellent boudin. Being in Houston, I still can get some decent and some very good boudin, but it’s never been the same. I’m looking forward trying my hand at making my own and getting back to what I remember getting from the little store down the street.
TomKat1962, I love The Best Stop. I head over there just about every time I pass through Scott.

I was born and raised in Louisiana and have tried the Excalibur Boudin seasoning and it turned out great. I’m not a huge fan of liver so I only used a pound and I pureed it and added about 8 cups of cooked rice to it. I cooked to butts in the seasoning in my crawfish pot outside until the bone fell out then mixed that with the rice and a little of the juice and stuffed into 32/35 mm hog casings. I’ve also used that seasoning to make a cured/smoked sausage as well as fresh sausage and it has been great every time I’ve used it.

My Christmas present every year is 20 LBS of Boudin and 20 LBS ANDOUILLE from Best Stop and always restock on their seasoning.
TomKat1962 I’m on my way!

AdamCA ok cooke seasoning in meat how many pounds of pork but did it take ?
willie6378 I want to say it was around 17-18 pounds of Pork Butt, around 7 pounds of cooked rice the a couple pounds of green onions, bell peppers and celery and white onions when I made it as actual Boudin. When I made it as a Fresh and Smoked sausage I made 10 lbs of each and adjusted the seasoning for that batch size.

Thanks for the Imput my biggest issue was how much rice to pork to liver that’s a lot of rice
willie6378 Amount of rice is a personal preference. Typically see anywhere from 25%-50% cooked rice. The recipes volumes are usually for cooked rice, not dry rice.

Sounds like the “Families” secret recipe?

Not really. I grew up just outside Baton Rouge and really missed boudin when I moved to IL for work. This recipe is just a mixture of many recipes I have seen online over the years and adjusted to my taste. Like most recipes in Louisiana for Jambalaya, Gumbo, Dirty rice, Etouffee, etc. it is just a guide. Cajuns were very poor people who lived off the land and ate what they could kill or catch in the swamps. They often stretched the recipes with rice. The most important part is taste before you stuff into casings and adjust seasoning as rice is bland and it will take a lot of seasoning.
Grill, broil, or poach and serve with crackers, mustard, hot sauce and spicy pickles.
Also try making some boudin balls. Roll some of the filling into balls about the size of an egg. Dip in egg wash, roll in panko (or cracker crumbs), and deep fry.

keend0 Sorry I didn’t thank you when you posted this. Great basic recipe for boudin and a good place to start for those that have not made it before.
I agree with the chicken livers rather than pork. Most people I have sold this to prefer the milder flavor.
Great Job.
