Hello. I searched google high and low and I can't seem to find a recipe for it. I remember my grandmother used to make it for breakfast every now and then but I was never interested in eating stomach as a child, although I remember my grand father and my father loved it. It been a while and I have since moved out of state. Everyone has since passed and I loved to try it now but I cant seem to find a recipe or any reference to it. The only reference I can find online is from an entry in a lousiana french dictionary. I know this is an odd first post but I have been watching this board for a while now. Any help would greatly appreciated.

What's a la chique imply?? Beef grillades are pretty easy to make.

ETA I wouldn't use your real name on here.

beef stomach, I think its made with either the third or fourth stomach

I removed my name, thank you for the heads up

edit, the chique is pronounced as sheck, it rhymes with deck but instead of a d its an sh. Assuming I remembered correctly.

Describe the dish: was it just smothered tripe? I found a reference to a tripe creole online, from an old Tony Chachere’s cookbook.

It might have just been smothered tripe and maybe we just called it by a different name, although I dont recall any tomatoes being in it. In an case you have helped a lot. Cant believe I hadn't search for smothered tripe... its amazing what getting old does to you

Make a roux based beef stew with the tripe and add some tomatoes and a little red wine.

Where exactly in LA was your memere from? I seem to vaguely recall a pig foot and tripe plate lunch at Thib’s in Opelousas.....someone from Opelousas may be familiar with your particular style of tripe.

Says la chique (Chine) is the stomach of an unweaned calf where milk is digested, so not quite tripe.
