Kartchners smoked boudin. Friend was driving and stopped in there because Billy’s parking lot was a circus. We grabbed a few links of smoked and it was perfect. It’s moist but not mushy, meaty, not too spicy and has a good bit of smoked flavor. Best I’ve ever eaten

I've had their regular pork boudin and it is great, but don't think I've had the smoked. Will have to try that.

Their deer boudin is probably my all-time favorite. And you should grab a jalapeño cream cheese boudin ball any time you stop there.

Had a link of boudin, 2 jalapeño cream cheese balls and some cracklins from there yesterday while passing through. One of my favorites.

I keep an ice chest in my truck and load up when I go through there, smoked is my favorite but the regular is good also. Also load up the jerky at the counter and the cracklins and pork rinds. Good shite.

I much prefer them to Billy's. The hog head cheese is really good too, along with the andouille.

Kartchner’s is very good. I’ve been buying it for years along with other food from there. You can also call in your order ahead of time and they’ll have it ready to go when you arrive.
I recently discovered their chicken stuffed with a shrimp rice dressing. Good stuff. The smoked hocks are some of the best I’ve had. I try to keep a big supply in the freezer for beans, greens, soups etc...

Anyone know what the new building next to Billy's in Krotz Springs will be? Is Billy's getting a new building?

Coming into Krotz Springs from the East, it will be directly across the street from where you'll sign your speeding ticket. Billy's is on the same side as you and the cop, but about 150 yards further West.

Kartchner's is often overlooked because they're across from Billy's, but they put out some damn good products. I actually like them better than Billy's.
