Anyone got any good spots?

Looking to get some good Boudin and Cracklins in the New Orleans area.

Ronnie’s in Baton Rouge is the GOAT but that’s a bit of a haul. TIA

New Orleans doesn't know good Boudin!!! Gotta hit up Lafayette or Lake Charles for that. Maybe even Breaux Bridge.

You can buy stuff in chain grocery stores that are from Louisiana.

Just like other stores sell stuff from Nola companies.

The other day a bought a central grocery muffuletta, I wasn’t in New Orleans.

No come to Houma.

Bourgeois Meat Market. New location right off Hwy 90. 45 minutes from Kenner.

Bourgeois Meat Market website

They ship also. Check them out. Very good website. And outstanding products. Shows them cooking in a huge pot.

Been in business over a hundred years.

Otherwise you will have to go West.

Chris’s in lakeview is as good as it gets in the greater Nola area.

Grab some steaks while you’re there.

I like Chris' for other stuff but their cracklins are like soft slabs of pork that you have to gnaw on and chew, leaving a fatty coating on your tongue. Not my style of cracklins.

Terrible boudin and terrible service at their original location.

Told them I wanted some boudin to eat in the car and when I grabbed the wrapping paper it was in, it was cold. Crap boudin was frozen solid.

That boudin is not close to Billy's, Poche's, Best Stop, Karchner's, Don's etc. around Lafayette

I make a pretty good boudin at my house, but it aint for sale. I like Chris's boudin. I have only had their chicken cracklin' and it was pretty good too. Nothing like Lafayette, but it will scratch the itch.
