Picked some up from poche's on Sunday and will probably eat it on Saturday and Sunday while watching football. Do I need to freeze it between now and then?

If you want to play it safe, go ahead and cook it in a bit of water now, let it cool off, then back into the fridge, on Saturday you can put it on a slow side of a grill to re-warm it.

Was it hot or refrigerated? I would freeze it. The meat of the Boudin is already cooked. The reason for placing in a pot of hot water or a rice cooker is to cook the casing. USDA recommends only re-warming items once after cooking. It will freeze just fine, especially if you vacum seal it. Next time Buy it already frozen or refrigerated, and freeze if refrigerated. If it was left over hot boudin, I wouldn't risk eating it.

I'll defrost my packs and eat them within a week. Sometimes longer (as long as it's not seafood boudin)

You'll be ok

I think it would still be good but you're pushing your luck with that amount of time.. If it has a funny smell, chunk it. It aint worth hugging teh terlit all day and missing football.

Thanks Tetu. Looking forward to meeting you one day. Thanks for all the great posts about us. We should be expanding soon. Phase one will be to enclose the existing porch and heat and cool, and start selling beer. Phase 2 will be to expand front porch to re-capture outdoor seating, and phase three will be a 3000-4000 s.f. dining area/dancehall (third phase probaly 2-3 years down the road). My wife runs the restaurant, as I mainly put the pork and brisket on early in the morning, but if i'm around i'd be happy to give you a tour of our smokehouses. I'm usually there on Saturdays.

Now you're talking. At least a few craft choices I hope.

Good call on first phase. I hear too many people say they would rather sit inside. I like it though. Phase 3 sounds great.

Perfect. I'm originally from lafayette but been in BR about 8 years. Whenever I do make it in it's usually a weekend.


FYI, Tread lightly posting about johnsons on the board though. Promoting your place on here is in somewhat of a gray area of being frowned upon. If someone asks, then answer, but don't start a thread about it or willingly talk it up in thread too much.

That being said, welcome to the board, there's alot of great people in here including a few owners, chefs, etc.

Thanks for the heads up. I kind of figured that. I mainly joined to help people out with questions about BBQ, and to learn from others as well. Also, just to talk football.

I'd like a bottle of sauce. They were out last time I went. I usually tailgate in the vet parking lot also.
