Got some frozen boudin sent to me by my uncle. The title says it all. I've seen recommendations to steam it, grill it, poach it, and even microwave it.

Just seeing what you folks tend to do.

When you get it fresh from a store or whatever it's normally just steamed, but grilling it until the casing is a little bit crispy is my favorite.

put it on a cookie sheet and cover with tin foil. 20-25 minutes at 350-375F.


per Best Stop:
How to Reheat Leftover Boudin In the Oven
The only other method we would recommend for reheating leftover boudin is warming it in a conventional oven. Set the heat on about 325 degrees, spread the boudin out on a shallow pan and cover it with baking foil. Leave your boudin in the oven for about 10-15 minutes, but keep a close eye on it! Too long in the oven and you’ll wind up with dry leftover boudin. Mais la!

i've used this method for Nunus boudin so I tweaked what Best Stop said to do. adjust as necessary and check the boudin often while in the oven.

Air fryer works great. Yes, I know it's a convection oven.

Casing crisps up real nice in the air fryer.

I thaw out Billy’s boudin for every tailgate. I put it on the medium size grill as far away from the fire as possible. Heat it about 30 to 45 minutes, turning a few times. Comes out moist and crispy skin so you don’t even know you are eating the skin. Same goes for Mr Porche’s sausage, just maybe a little shorter time.

So there are your two schools. I prefer to crisp up the casing. Cleaner bites. And I just like it that way.

Wrap it in a wet paper towel and microwave at 30 second increments until it get to your preferred temperature.

This is how you do it. It's the simplest and most effective way to heat it like the store does.

Thaw it, then put it in a strainer on top of boiling water. Flip the links every now and then. In about an hour, it's done, just like you get in the stores to eat.
