Boudin

Boudin sausage: a time-honored Louisiana tradition.

Boudin sausage is one of the most classic Cajun dishes of all time. In fact, if you drive through any town in south Louisiana you will see signs advertising "Hot Boudin" everywhere - from corner grocery stores to restaurants and even gas stations. Luckily for you, we have a wide selection of authentic Cajun boudin sausage available right here at Louisiana Living.

Traditional boudin sausage - c'est bon, cher!

The traditional version of boudin sausage is a mouth-watering blend of cooked pork, rice, Cajun spices and seasonings such as green onions, bell peppers and parsley - all stuffed into a sausage casing and served piping hot. In Louisiana it is not uncommon for people to eat boudin for breakfast, lunch or anytime of day as a special treat. It's especially good on a cold winter day when you want to spice things up a bit. Boudin sausage also makes for a great appetizer or party food served in thin slices. While boudin is normally steamed or braised, it has also become popular to serve grilled boudin at tailgating parties and barbecues.

Louisiana Living offers traditional pork boudin sausage from three of south Louisiana's most famous specialty meat producers - Savoie's, Poche's and Comeaux's. Try all three and see which one is your favorite!

Specialty boudin - deliciously different.

While pork boudin sausage has been around for many generations, in recent years specialty boudin made with various types of seafood has become increasingly popular in Cajun country. At Louisiana Living we offer you two types of specialty boudin sausage - crawfish boudin and alligator boudin. Either one of these wonderful products makes for a deliciously different taste treat. So if you're tired of traditional pork boudin, get a little adventurous and try some crawfish or alligator - we know you won't be disappointed!
