As opposed to what?


You have a choice of getting moist or dry brisket plates?

There is a "moist" cut of brisket, which is just fattier, and then there is the lean cut

I know, I'm just being an a-hole because BBQ in Louisiana is awful.

I agree with lsumailman61. The Mashed Potatoes are terrible as is the powdered-based gravy that they put on them. In fact... All of their side items are crap.

The meat is not bad!

Just finished my first meal at Couyons.

Interior.

They did a very good job with the dump left for them by sonic.

Meals.

Wife had the two meat combo with two sides and toast. She had the brisket and pulled pork with beans and mac n cheese $8.49. She enjoyed the brisket, pulled pork and baked beans. I would pass on the mac n cheese next time.

I had the half pound pulled pork sandwich 6.50 with baked beans 1.75 both tasted good and it was plenty of food. The owners wife told me (sorry to sound like Afreaux) that tomorrow is the Grand opening and they will have a "world" champion BBQ'er, giving out free samples as well as live music.

Its a place I welcome to the Westside and will surely be back.

Im already planning my next meal,
Waffle fries with cheese, onions, sour cream, japs, covered with pulled pork or Stuffed BBQ Taters.

Waffle fries at Couyon's?! Man, I hope they bring that to the Burbank location. I always stop at McD's for fries when I order takeout.

I had the opportunity to go by the grand opening. The owners at Couyons had the 2009 world bbq champs there talking about bbq techniques and giving out samples of their award winning recipes. This was the guy on the Food Network!!! He was super nice and had one bad boy bbq get up. Very nice that they could get someone like that out there.

The food was great. They have more options than the Gardere location and the loaded gator tater is out of this world. The Cou Cou fries were awesome too!

I like the direction they are taking and it is well worth the time crossing the bridge. The inside of the building was really nice and has a feeling like you are on the back porch. Everyone there was really nice. They do counter service, which can take a few minutes as they cut everything and prepare it as ordered. I would take fresh any day over that dried out nasty meat served at Voo Doo.

I had the brisket sandwich as well, but got the moist with waffle fries and the sweet BBQ sauce. Pretty solid and I nice option I Port Allen where there aren't many.
