Any boudin makers out there?

I've made bounding a few times over the years, have been told it's very good. Use a traditional recipe with pork liver. Looking to step it up to make a richer flavor. Anyone have any advice to richen it up? Was thinking about adding a few tablespoons to the boudin gravy and cook it down before adding the rice.

I've been trying to replicate Billy's boudin balls, my favorite. I have tried numerous times, with no recipe. Not there yet

I add some ham soup base or chicken soup base to the liquid. Be careful with the salt as the soup base can be salty.
I use a 7 parts pork meat to 1 part pork liver ratio.

I cook the rice in the reserve liquid that's leftover from the pot instead of just cooking/adding plain white rice at the end. Simple trick to add flavor.
Also, lots of fresh parsley and green onions at the end

I've never made boudin, but when people talking about making something richer I immediately think Hoison Sauce.

Apparently, you've never tasted it either.

I think adding more pork liver would make it richer.

Rich pork stock. I've made boudin before...never was pleased with the result, though it wasn't bad.

It's not unheard of to add a third ingredient like pork butt or crawfish.

x 2 .... save the seasoned water that was used to cook down/boil the pork and liver. I use most of it to boil the rice, and will set some aside. In case the boudin and rice mixture is to dry, add the seasoned water until desired texture is achieved. I do 1# of liver for every 8# of pork.

pork butt a third ingredient??? Pork butt should be your first ingredient

Anyone want to share their recipe with someone who's wanted to try making it? Also, a good source for casings in the BR area.

Old Grove Smokehouse has casings. Google Boudin Link for recipes.
I've made it a couple times. Flavor was very good but it came out dry.

2 Boston butts, 4lbs pork liver, 5 bell peppers, 8 onions, 3 bunches onion tops, 14 cups of rice, 4 cups of Arts Sausage Seasoning, boil all meat with half of veggies in water with 2 cups of Arts seasoning, grind cooked meat and veggies with other half of uncooked veggies, cook the rice with liquid stock from boiling the meat, mix rice and ground meat/veggies with remaining stock, the consistency should be a more "moist" than rice dressing, but now watery, add the remaining 2 cups of Arts seasoning, then stuff into casing, makes about 45lbs

Anyone know where you can find pork liver in NOLA?

Damn! Sounds delicious! And 45 pounds of boudin! Keeeeeyawwwwwww!

It's a good recipe, make sure you use a large grinding plate vs medium or small so there's something to chew vs. just some mush
Posted on 7/20/17 at 4:38 pm to Boston911
Where do you get Arts seasoning? What size casings do you use.
Posted on 7/20/17 at 5:00 pm to Boston911
Make sure you stuff your links tight so you have a crisp casing.
