Prompted by the hogs head cheese thread (since I don't have any recipes for that)...what are your favorite recipes with andouille (not including gumbo). Here's mine:

Andouille Crusted Trout:

2 cups shredded andouille
2 cups bread crumbs
4-6 trout fillets
cajun seasoning
one stick unsalted butter
1 egg

Mix shredded andouille with bread crumbs. Season trout fillets with cajun seasoning, then coat with egg. Coat fish with andouille/bread crumb mixture. Melt butter in an iron skillet over med-high heat. Fry fish (approx 3-5 minutes per side) until a crust is formed and fish is cooked through.

I like to serve with a vegetable and garlic bread.

The andouille from Jacob's is so good I'm convinced you can make almost any dish better with it. That trout recipe sounds great.

For Thanksgiving we have always been an oyster dressing family, last year I made up an andouille and cornbread dressing, that bowl got emptied faster than the oyster dressing. I'll write it down when I make it this year.

I made a batch of homemade andouille in March, it was as good as Jacob's, but man is that a lot of work.

I've never thought of making a dressing with it. I will have to give it a try the next time I make one.

The flavor of that much andouille would likely overpower the oyster's subtle nuances.

Besides the obvious, Gumbo, I use some when making spagetti.

With my spagetti I make a small roux. Once roux is ready I put ground up andouille (jacobs), then continue with normal sketti making.

I add andouille when I smother cabbage. Paul Prudhomme has a recipe for andouille and corn soup that is outstanding also. It might be on his website.

I make a cajun chili with andouille and crawfish tail meat. Just substitute those in for your standard chili meat (whatever you normally use.)

It's damn good.

I had a kick arse black bean and andouille soup at French Market Bistro last week. If anyone knows how to do that, you need to post it.

We have a squash and andouille dressing for Thanksgiving.

Last year, I used Brigtsen's butternut shrimp bisque recipe as a base and made up butternut and andouille bisque. Sweet potato and andouille bisque is good.

Emeril has a crawfish/shrimp and andouille savory cheesecake recipe which is outstanding.

baileys andouille


I've never actually been to Bailey's and if I did and my mother found out, she wouldn't speak to me.

I don't know any details, but I believe Mr. Bailey worked with Jacobs for a number of years before opening his nice pretty little shop right next door. It just seemed funny to me that he would open "Bailey's World Famous Andouille" right next to "Jacob's World Famous Andouille" after Jacobs had been there so long.

My family has always gone to Jacobs and always will.

buddy bailey did work for jacobs but they had a falling out and he opened his own store. Baileys is good but just not smoked long enough like jacobs.

I've never written out the recipe for this, I just wing it as I go.

I usually saute up some garlic, onions, bell peppers and chile's (pick your poison here.) Then brown up the adouille in it and chunk all that in a crock pot. Add in whatever beans you like (I use canned chili beans and red beans), tomato sauce and tomato paste. Add your favorite seasonings and the tail meat and let it go for a few hours.

I guess I can write up a fancy recipe with amounts if anybody really wants it.
