After that post I followed the recipe as close as I could and it was decent. Not Best Stop but adequate. The next day I went on my own and it's awesome. Now looking forward to tweaking it until it's cajun nirvana.

Richard's, Manda all that can be good smoked..grilled can be OK.

I used to like Rouses but got tired of it and just wont eat it any more.

Inspired by another post I made my own last week and it's awesome. I didnt do casings but smoked the balls...like it a lot but its that having it made for you that makes it better.

In NOLA there is Creole Country that makes boudin that is kinf od bland but very meaty and peppery. Not quite enough liver or something but if I am going to get boudin from Breaux Mart, that's what I'm going for. Smoke and its very good.
Slice em thick, salt and pepper, dip in Cousins Creole Tomato dressing

Damn just left Pensacola but hopefully returning this summer.

This thread gave me an idea to borrow my Hogs team card to check out restaurant depot. Im not going offshore any time soon but crave amberjack and cobia 24/7.

tartar sauce


that could be a whole topic...try the sauce that comes with the stuffed shrimp at Pascal's Manale..its amazing

Also at home I use Cousins Creole Tomato instead of tartar

I can make an excellent shrimp and okra gumbo out of unused to bait shrimp. Make stock of the really small ones.

Is the flounder still any good over there?

I recently realized the thin fish is too damn salty for me any more or maybe it changed. The fish to crust ration and salt aren't edible.

Thick cut is the new thin for me.

I forgot to check if Oyster Stew was still offered but the last time I had it there it was more like a Campbell's recipe.

Not sure if that place is worth it any more.

Totino's is a classic...run straight from Varsity to Circle K to get beer and those before 2am.

And lift and occasional hot dog right off the rotisserie while the clerk isn't looking (or pocketing the cash from beer sales)
I know some who try to get it as dark as possible for seafood. I'm not obsessed with making the darkest roux.

Paid for the service for 10 years and never used it. I make one call and they have to come from BSL. Why inconvenience someone else? They ought to have someone on call in Chalmette at least and maybe think about having something easier for a gas run, like a local.

Of course I got eaten alive between 8 and 9.

I managed to run out of gas in Bayou LaLoutre last night coming in.

I went ahead and called the service I pay to come get my fool arse or bring some gas. Boat US, Sea Tow.

Turns out they have to dispatch from Bay St Louis, so it took 2 1/2 hours. Got my boat all neat and organized during that time. I had a couple of potential tows go by but I figured it good to make them come out, knowing they don't have any service nearby they ought to get something more readily available down there.

I have a much better concept of my range now :lol:
