The pepper jack boudin ball is underwhelming.. The reg boudin ball is great though.

yeah, always an open invitation if i'm around, and since no one else can seem to grasp the concept of pit grilling the chicken i'm almost always there on Saturdays. FYI we are closed on Sundays and Mondays

Was in Lafayette just before Mardi Gras, had some great boudin, both plain & hot, as well as plate lunches at Guidroz in Lafayette.

GUIDROZ'S FOOD STORE

At Guidroz's you'll find two generations working side by side as the next generation prepares to take the reigns of this north Lafayette institution. They've been in business for over 50 years and tout that they sell "Boudin With an Attitude." What that attitude is and where precisely the boudin developed its attitude is not disclosed. Attitude aside, the red hued link provides an explosion of porky goodness.

1301 E Simcoe St, Lafayette, LA - (337) 235-5757. Hours: M 7:30-3:30, T-F 7:30-5:30, Sat 7:30-4:30.

Love his sign

I did stop by. I didn't see your post until just now. I may have actually spoken to you as I asked one of the employees which type of wood was used in the smoker and was told preferably white oak but that other oak was used as well.

I enjoyed it very much and found the outdoor setting perfect on a day like today.

Grilling some of your boudin for dinner as I type this.


Thanks for all the suggestions! I may have to head to Alexandria soon and will refer back to this list for recs on lunch as I head back home from there.

Maybe I'll try that Wendy's that caused so much consternation.

Dons has some of the worst boudin I've ever had


Thank you! I'm always seeing recommendations for it on here and can't for the life of me figure out why. I have had boudin all over this state and Don's makes my list of top 5 worst.
