Jerry Lee's vs Ronnie's

since I had the day off and very little regard for my own well being I decided to finally try out both of these places today. I got hoghead cheese, cracklin,and boudin from Jerry Lee's and smoked boudin and cracklin from Ronnie's. I really liked Jerry Lee's boudin it could have been spicier but over all a good product. I really liked the smoked flavor of Ronnie's but just like the last one I thought it could have been spicier. I would recommend both and would go back for either one depending on my mood.
I thought Jerry Lee's had the far superior cracklin even though Ronnie's was more fresh I don't like the way they cut them into chunks creating a big layer of fat and I don't like the seasoning at all. Jerry Lee's was more crunchy, cut into thin strips, and seasoned with only salt (the way God intended).
I really liked the way the head cheese tasted I just wasn't a fan of the texture. I felt as though they could have processed it a lil more.
I also picked up some green onion sausage from Jerry Lee's and if I'm still alive later I'm gonna use some of it in my smothered potatoes

I do not like Jerry Lee's cracklin at all... Thats the way yankees make it..
Go to Acadiana and everyone makes it like Ronnies. Both have good boudin for the area. I prefer Ronnies smoked boudin but I like smoked boudin. Regular its pretty close. How did you go to Ronnies and not get boudin balls? They make better boudin balls than I have had anywhere.

Good Job,
Now be a real man and go do that one day in Acadiana and get back to me
I like the seasoning on Ronnies cracklins... personal choice I guess..
And Jerry Lee's hoghead cheese is the best there is IMO

this is what is always so interesting regarding cracklin and boudin threads. everyone has different taste and basically what they like seems to be whats familier to them.
i personally think ronnies beats jerry lee's on cracklins and boudin. however, i like jerry lee's head cheese better than any i have ever had. i have had alot and also make my own.

I think the one I grew up making has essentially ruined all others for me

i would give it to you but honestly, i dont really have one. i just starting adding shite together and drinking beer. could be why it never is the same.
actually i looked at alot of different recipes on the internet and added and subtracted to my taste.

one thing i use is ears. i find the fat and meat off the ears helps to gel. i also chop up jalapenos real fine.
Posted on 1/28/10 at 4:01 pm to MsandLa
Yep. Usually boil down a pack or 2 of ears for some extra gelatin,too.

dont forget about feet. i get a few packs of them, boil it down and then pick meat off before i grind it up.
mine has good flavor but i gotta work on the texture. it's hard to make it "just right".
