I’ve always done the whole process in a day. And the meat/rice mixture is still warm. But I think I’ve bit off more boudin than I have time to make tonite and would like to do the stuffing part tomorrow night. Does it stuff worth a shite if the stuffing is cold?


ETA- where I’m at in the process. Got a while to go

I’ve never done it cold but if it’s mixed well and it’s going through a compression stuffer I don’t see any real issue. Maybe a little gummy.

Make some into balls. Whenever I’ve made it I’ve always chilled the portion to make balls simply because they hold together better. Hence the gummy response.

I cooked it down until everything was tender, about 1:45, strained and separated the stock. I think I’ll just reheat the stock, make hot rice, then mix in the tub with the chilled meat when I go to stuff it tomorrow. That will get everything back heated up. This is 20lbs of pork butt, 5 lbs of pork liver, 10 yellow onions, 20 celery stalks, 2 red & 2 green peppers, 8 big jalapeños, 3 heads of garlic and seasonings. Will grind and add about 7lbs of rice before stuffing.

Seems like it would be hard to get it out of the stuffer tube if it’s cold

I agree. I think I’ve got it figured out how to get everything back warmed up

I have, but my recipe does result in all the cooking liquid being put back into the meat/rice/veggie mixture.
It is noticeably different than stuffing while warm, but not enough that I would heat everything back up just to stuff it.

You could put that shite in the freezer and it would be good as a popsicle. Man that looks good.

I always found my grinder/stuffer works better when the stuff is cold

Took 1.75 gallons of reserved liquid and cooked 7lbs of rice in it




Chop up meat/veggie mixture


Add parsley and green onions



Add the cooked rice, remaining stock, and mix the hell out of it


Strap some natural pig gut on the stuffer and make some boudin

That looks killer. Wish I knew how to do that and had the equipment to try.
