I love making hand pies, and I’ve actually stuffed all kinds of things with boudin and pepper jack before so when I saw Elsie’s is doing a boudin pepper jack hand pie I had to make it.

I used smoked boudin, my preference. Shredded a block of pepper jack. This is the filling.



Lay out some puff pastry dough and get your filling loaded on. Use egg wash to make the edges adhere to each other.



Fold over and crimp. Crimp really ugly if you’re me. Slit the tops and brush with egg wash.



Put into an oven at 400 and bake ~20min.



Serve with a dipping sauce made of pepper jelly and a TBS of butter. I just microwaved it to get it nice and runny.



Enjoy!

It’s smoked boudin from Kartchner’s. Jones made a trip out there on Saturday and stocked our fridge and freezer to full capacity with meals/boudin/meat.

It’s good stuff. I’ve had good luck with Ronnie’s smoked as well though if you’re in BR. I like to stuff Cornish hen with it and pepper jack and then brush pepper jelly on it during the last 10 minutes of baking so it gets dark golden.

Looks great!

I made some boudin and pepper jack egg rolls not long ago. I used the good egg roll wraps that produce a crispy crunch like you get in restaurants.

Only downside was a pound of boudin only made 6 of 'em. I used Jamison Boudin from the farmers market.

Its just store bought puff pastry. Ever since Alton Brown said he doesn't make his own, I subscribed to that thought

Those look soooo good.

I can't get boudin up here but I'd love to hear about some of your other combinations so I can try them out, this seems like a quick easy dinner idea.

Creamy or cheesy crawfish mixture is really good. Or even a thick étouffée stuffed in there.

Also love Philly sliced steak with pepper and onions. Then serve a cheese sauce for dipping. Just 3tbs flour/butter to make a light roux, add your milk, then lots of American cheese until it melts. Season with cayenne/garlic powder/etc.
