Better to fry, grill or my expertise, smoke them?
if on the grill, be careful, it cooks and dries fast..
closest to original way is in rice cooker, or my preferred way, sitting in a collander with the collander sitting in a big pot of boiling water..(sorta steamin') Make sure the water level doesn't reach the boudin..

If your expertise is smoking then do that.

Best boudin by FAR in NOLA is going to be at Butcher. They sell 4 links to a pack, already cryovac'd to go. It's really good stuff.

Believe it, or not, but Rouse's homemade stuff, in the specialty butcher case is actually rather decent. We enjoy it, my friends and I, but that's just us New Orleans suburbanites who also get out to other parts of the state.

But the real question is does anyone eat the casing?

It's already cooked Jed so all you have to do is reheat . I either heat in a pan with a little water or throw it in the oven for a bit. The oven will produce a crisp casing.

Best Boudin IMO
But NOLA isn't the place for good boudin. As everyone else stated SWLA

Cant imagine there being any decent boudin in NO. Might be ok for tourists that dont know any better.
