Boudin ratio rice to meat

It's what you like best. Probably a 1/3 meat to 2/3 rice is an average blend

The meat mixture is in the fridge.....How much rice per lb of meat?

I use the 25-2-12 boudin cooking method. I season 25 lbs. of trimmed/cubed pork and 2 lbs. of liver (optional), which are slow cooked in large pot with onions and garlic. Once meat is cooked tender, it is strained, cooled, ground to desired texture, then mixed with 12 cups of cooked rice (1 cup raw yields 3 cups cooked), parsley and green onions. This makes around 40 lbs of boudin.

You saved the seasoned water that the meat was cooked in correct ? I use some of the seasoned water to cook the rice. I also add some of it to the boudin meat/rice mixture to keep moist when stuffing into casing. That leftover seasoned water has lots of flavor and spices. Best of luck as boudin is time consuming but worth the effort

So your ratio is .48 cups of cooked rice per lb of meat. Just looks weird in small increments. My 9 lb of meat with your ratio is 4.32 cups of cooked rice divide this by 3, gives me 1.44 cups of uncooked rice, Just seems off.

I think I will make more rice just incase.
