its about that time of the year again for a crawfish boil!!!!!!!! any suggestions where i can get some good boudain and andouille sausage to cook at home to go along with the mudbugs? hell if you have a killa recipe for a crawfish boil...go ahead and list it, i am always up to try something different
absolutely. also buy a deboned stuffed chicken with shrimp or crawfish and rice, too. it's about $10 and is a great deal. oh..and pick up their pre-cut hamburger patties. man, i love that place. oh, yeah...don't forget a crawfish pie. if you're looking for it...it's not directly across from stratford...but is directly across from Tully Stadium. at the corner of a strip center on dairy ashford directly across from the stadium.
Abesolutly Agree!! I work in the office buildings right next to Herberts and they have the best lunch specials for only $6.50! Chicken with shrimp or crawfish dressing and etoufee bread and corn. We eat there atleast 2-3 times a week, and they pretty much know what we're going to order. That place has all the meat and fixings you could ask for. Look at me, im rambling on like a little school girl because I love this place so much.
We boiled up 2 30lb bags this past weekend in Galveston. They were good. The recipe goes something like this. Start drinking. Light fire. Keep drinking boil bugs Keep drinking eat bugs keep drinking repeat until bugs and drinks are gone
You guys saying I lived by Stratford this whole time and didn't know about it? Gonna have to try that place soon.
www.cajungrocer.com has a lot of stuff and for people from lafayette they have stuffed bread from cajun kitchen very very good stuff. also poches boudin and sausages etc
As far as boudain goes, what part of town you on? I know this place by my house that people from all around the city go to. Its called Burts Meat Market. If you dont mind going to the ghetto, its on Lyons Ave in Denver Harbor (77020 zip code). That place is always hoping and the only place my family and friends go for boudain. That place is famous in houston. People all the way up from Mo City come to this place......
Word! Best smoked boudin in Houston. Get the extra spicy (it's not too spicy). They also have boudin balls.
Burt does have some good boudain but i wanted to try some different places. i was looking for a place in or near the loop. how bout some places that makes good andouille sausage?
I'll 2nd or 5th or whatever Hebert's. They do a pork sausage w/ crawfish tails that is just outstanding.
Hebert's rocks, that reminds me I need to stop by there. Might have them supply the eats for my draft day party.
Had a boil this last weekend - talk about perfect weather! Used all the normal spices, but through in some red pepper to add some kick. I get my boudain frozen in Louisiana from the Boudian King. If you're looking for new things to try - a buddy of mine in New Orleans told me a neat trick - take a can of sweet corn and remove the wrapper. Punch holes in it with an knife and throw the whole can in the pot. The corn absorbs the spice and concentrates it inside the can. Stuff makes my eyes water - perfect!
Do any of you know how well does boudain travel? I used to like boudain and its one of those things you can't get up here in the land of lutefisk and cheese curds. I'm thinking while I'm down in Houston if I can get some frozen or could the smoked boudain last for about 10 hours unrefridgerated?
