I was in the neighborhood making sales calls this morning, since I have not been there in years I had to stop. I got a couple of boudin balls, a crawfish pie and some thin smoked chicken sausage. Only a little of the sausage made it back to the office for me to share. Great stuff.

This kind of roadside treat is the reason I live here.

I bring close to $100 worth of things to Tx. with me every trip. The Cornbread Dressing Stuffed Chickens are great, its has a slight sweet tang to the dressing. I also like the Stuffed Pork Chops, Seafood Stuffed Tater and the Green Onion Smoked Sausage. My daughter and friends at work, like the Beef Jerky. Also a couple bags of Cracklins......like I said $100 worth easy.....

I've had both and both are very good. I will pass Chris's on my way to Bergerons. Moonie Bergeron does a good job and has a great selection of products. He makes it too easy to spend a $100...

you're not lying.

I know it's prob not a popular item, and food board taboo to say so, but their premade burger patties are great. I picked them up on a whim one time, and i am ashamed to admit i liked them as much as the ones i shape myself. And yes, i grind my own meat for burgers.

I use the Green Onion Smoked Sausage all the time, every trip I get a few #'s just to have it around the house.

I'm a huge advocate of Bergeron's and eat there once a week. But, I'm not of fan of their boudin and especially their boudin balls. Too mushy.

But I give a 10 to the majority of their products. Favorites include stuff pork chop plate lunch and for take home cooking is the stuffed fish.

You missed out on the real Monday treat-their plate lunch. Red Beans and Rice and/or the biggest fried pork chop you will ever grab hold of. Ask LSUDad, I've seen one in his clutches before.

Seriously, they have a good burger and it's a toss-up between them and Benoits as to who has made the best smoked venison sausage for me the past couple of years. They also make a chicken "burger" that is stuffed with all kinds of seasoning, ham, etc. Fire that dude on the Foreman to heat up and rock on.

ETA-their boudin is middle of the road, and after eating Ronnie's boudin balls, I might never get them anywhere else.

When I use Bergeron's ham hocks in red beans, there's no comparison. Their ham hocks are quite amazing.

What is thin smoked chicken sausage?

Is it just really skinny sausage?
