Billy’s Famous Fried Boudin & Chicken Cracklin!

[@clarkbourgeois7661]

That is why it is a convenience store in Louisiana. You can conveniently get a fifth or pint of booze with your boudin, cracklin and pickled quail eggs. Those pepper jack boudin balls at Billy's are addicting for sure. Glad you passed by for a visit.

[@MattDV]

Thanks @clarkbourgeois7661. I really enjoyed this stop.

[@PiresPremiumPromotions]

That hospitality from everyone in Louisiana was everything, glad they treated you with love!

[@MattDV]

[@tracywhite8577]

Yes. alcohol is sold at any store in Louisiana, grocery stores, convenient stores, and gas stations, and boudin was originally made in sausage casings, the fried balls are a byproduct of that.

[@MattDV]

Thank you. I should have grabbed some of the sausage too.

Hi Matt! It was nice to see Danielle, my fellow Modsketeer, make an appearance in the premiere chat! The food looked lip-smacking good and the sounds of you chowing down on it was confirmation. I had a funny thought when you mispronounced "Boudin" as "Boudon" ... if you've ever been blessed to have seen the series called "Farscape" back in the day, there was a two- or three-part episode where John Crighton and the other characters were trapped inside a ginormous "Boodong" drifting in outer space. Long story short, that was my first thought when I read the title of this video. If you've never seen that show / episodes, I feel sorry your funny bones. LOL! Peace!

I’m asking a question I know the answer to,,😮 yes it’s boudin rolled with a pepper jack cheese and flour and breadcrumbs then fried long enough to turn a pretty brown! Omg if one or two breaks in the middle of frying,, what a mess, make you a thinner strainer to strain rice😂 😂 This brought back memories of my managing a deli for years days!❤ I love LA the whole boot!🥾 eats and cooking and the people, (most)are friendly caring people,, anyways it’s been home all my life!

[@hettiecarries6450]

You should have tried a link of crawfish boudin and a link of regular boudin. That green was probably jalapeño from jalapeño cheese and green onions. Research Boudin, Creole cause everything is not cajun. Those crackling had been fried hours ago and under that heat lamp. You also should have tipped on over to Billeaud’s on the eastern side of Lafayette in Broussard. Best Stop has good Boudin too. Taste is always consistent. The second pronunciation of Lafayette was correct. You will find nothing but good Creole/Cajun food in south Louisiana.
