| Don's Specialty Meats - Scott, LA (Posted on 10/5/12 at 2:16 pm)
I see this place every time I drive back and forth to east TX on I-10. I have always wanted to stop and check it out. Has anyone shopped at this establishment and what did you think?

Both almost always have a decent crowd so they're obviously doing something right

They just opened a Billy's right there at that exit as well. That's my favorite boudin. Cracklins...meh...but the boudin is awesome, if you like yours with a little spice.

It is indeed. There are three locations. Opelousas on 190, Krotz Springs on 190, and the Scott Exit is the newest one. Their boudin is a freaking work of art. The others just don't have enough spice for my taste.

Quality establishment. Best Stop has gone downhill, IMO. If you aren't at the Best Stop by 8 AM, the cracklins tend to be stale and cold.
