MUNCHIES Presents: A Short Film on Cajun Boudin

[@shippainoki]

Im a New Orleans Native and own a Cajun Creole Restaurant on Okinawa, Japan. Boudin and one of my most popular dishes. Good eatin. :-)

[@BIGBLOCK5022006]

What do the locals think of Cajun and Creole food?

[@anewfuture9975]

what is the name of the restaurant? would love to visit when i go to japan one day :)

[@phug0id]

that's amazing!

[@CalebWayneMcCready]

I was stationed in Oki and in from Louisiana and I never heard of that place. I’m sad now.

[@cjroberts7022]

Alfred shipp wow. Lived in oki for yrs. Never knew this.... left in 96.

[@arturoarambula2814]

I'm a Mexican from South Texas but all my life we had Cajuns coming to hunt down here and I loved the food they would make. Eventually I was blessed to have a job that requires me to go to Cajun country. Now I make boudain and gumbo here in Texas and at least three families that are friends of mine in Louisiana have learned to make menudo, pozole and tamales. I have always felt that our two cultures are so similar that we feel right at home when we visit each other.

[@cisneros409]

Same here g. I’m also Mexican from south Texas and I agree.

[@sethhughes2163]

How right you are my friend!

[@gregbradshaw7220]

That roux takes forever to make but it’s worth it

[@Vega1251]

BRUH!! I'm legit tearing up!!! I'm from this area that's featured in the show and it's making me proud to see this!! And if you haven't tried boudin you need to try it at least once!! Don't knock it till you try it!!! And shout out to my cousin Purvis Morrison for getting on this show!!!

[@agentjohnson3973]

@scoot manke lack of reading skills I see

[@victordejung5675]

NOW way he’s ur cousin ‼️

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Great video! I'm from south Mississippi, and I'm no stranger to true Louisiana culture and food. I was raised eating this way and wouldn't trade it for anywhere else on earth!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

It sure is! I'm glad to hear your enjoying my videos, and nice to know your a native Mississippian. I've met a few others through my channel that are from here as well. Really cool :)

[@macwoods8011]

Boudin is amazing

[@nandor2020]

You should make your own video!

[@dougedoug2105]

I am from Louisiana, and my stepdad is a Creole man from right smack dab in the middle of Cajun Country. I am no stranger to cajun/creole cuisine and its safe to say that I have been around Boudin my entire life(20+ years) but did not start eating it until about 3 years ago. Growing up watching my family eat it, I thought it was gross for many reasons but after trying it, I have to say that man its one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. I moved to TX and Pappadeaux Restaurant is the closest thing to down home cooking that I can get here so now every weekend I treat myself to some Boudin & Dirty Rice. Just ate some as a midnight snack and tastes better today than it did 2 days ago. Gotta love that Boudin

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

@@dougedoug2105 Thats awesome! Hard to beat food that good!

[@henrykennedy9578]

This video does such a great job, truly shows Acadiana.

[@sarceneaux2010]

this reminds me of being a kid and visiting family in lake charles and new orleans and hearing everyone talking funny.. now i miss the accent and recognize it anywhere i go. and i always got comments on how much i would eat. i love this video.

[@danielfreeley5217]

Without a doubt the best accents in America... sound so cool haha

[@blacquesjacques7239]

Locals were almost shamed out of it .

[@cajungoat]

I feel gypped being cajun without much of an accent.

[@19dec1981]

youll be surprised but in Romania we have a similar sausage called 'Caltabos' with the only difference that the rice is not boiled when added to the mixture. it cooks inside the casing during the final boiling.

[@IslenoGutierrez]

Two of those Cajun guys have some Spanish-creole descent (colonial ancestry from Spaniards in Louisiana ) because their last names are Rodriguez and Romero. Rodriguez comes from the Isleños of Louisiana (Spanish Canary Islanders, islands of Spain) and Romero comes from the Malagueños of Louisiana (Andalusian Spanish, south of Spain). Both groups are Spanish-Creoles, which are the descendants of colonial Spaniards in Louisiana. Cajuns are usually Acadian French descent (French Canadian roots), but many have a little admixture from other Louisiana ethnic groups such as French, Spanish, English or German. But we can thank the Cajuns for Louisiana boudin that has rice and meat in it.

[@arlingtonguy54]

El Matador yes, the French Acadians from Nova Scotia mixed with the Spanish, Africans, English, Germans, French, Native Americans and anyone else that happened to settle there. It’s a big melting pot.

[@IslenoGutierrez]

arlingtonguy54 I think for the most part, from my experiences living in Louisiana is that there are Cajuns that are strictly Acadian French descent, and then there are those with admixture, usually from Spaniards or Germans and some here or there may have Native American admixture (certain surnames are associated with this type), but rarely ever have I seen them mixed with black/West African. Sometimes with Anglo admixture. I think it’s regional in Louisiana among Cajuns too. Those in the heart of Cajun country, especially in small towns and down the bayou are most often strictly Acadian French, but those in areas that border New Orleans, Central Louisiana, the Florida parishes or the Texas state line may or may not have admixture and those often in areas of Acadiana that had other sizable populations of non-Acadians settle, like near the Spanish settlements located in Assumption and Ascension Parishes and the New Iberia area and the areas with significant German settlement such as St.Charles, St. John the Baptist and St. James Parishes. So chances are, a Cajun can be fully Acadian French, or admixed with a secondary ancestry, usually Spanish or German or Native American or even “France” French which poured into the area via New Orleans. Many ”white creoles” known as French Creoles (white Louisianians of colonial French ancestry from France) poured into Acadiana after the Civil War and married into the Cajuns. However, I think the vast majority of their make up is Acadian French.

[@ieprince]

@@IslenoGutierrez When you say ""France" French, are you referring to the french that came to Louisiana after the French Creole people were already established as a "group" or "culture?" I'm not sure what the correct word to use to describe Cajun and Creole people.

[@IslenoGutierrez]

Rob TheSinner Listen, in Louisiana there was four French descended groups (whites). There were the French Creoles which are the white descendants of colonial Louisiana French settlers and early Québécois settlers, there were the Acadians whom are French Canadians, there were white St. Domingue Creoles whom were the whites of colonial Haiti that arrived in Louisiana and there were the foreign French whom were all the French immigrants from France that arrived after colonialism when Louisiana was a US state. Those are the four French ancestries of Louisiana. However, these mixed with each other over time to various extents in various locations. Those who refer to themselves as Cajuns are usually a mix of Acadian and French Creole ancestry, but some have admixtures from the other two populations. That is for their French ancestry. However, Cajuns more often than not have some other non-French admixture usually from Spaniards, Germans, Italians, Irish or English in any combination or any percentage. To make matters even more confusing, they use the term Cajun which is a corruption of the term Acadian, which seems to suggest they are Acadians. But they are not, they are a mixture of ancestries I listed above. And for the record, the Acadians (one of their ancestry populations) were known in Louisiana as Acadian Creoles before the term Cajun was even invented. Now on to Creoles. Creole in Louisiana means to be native born to the land and if the original French-Spanish colonial based culture of Louisiana. So this transcends race as there are white Creoles, mixed race Creoles and black Creoles. Creole is not a race, but a native born person native to the old culture. Among white Creoles, there are French Creoles (as explained above), Spanish Creoles (descendants of Spaniards, I am part of this category) and German Creoles (descendants of Germans) there are also Creole Italians and Creoles Irish. All of these are those that are native born to Louisiana and Native to its French-Spanish based old culture. Among mixed race creoles there are the mulattoes whom are a mixture of white and black and some have American Indian blood. These people are called Creoles of color. Also there are the métis peoples whom are Creoles of white and American Indian blood. Then lastly, there are Afro-Creoles whom are non-mulatto blacks. Very confusing, I know. Just look at it as we are all Creoles, even the Cajuns. People often make incorrect distinctions between Creoles and Cajuns because they mistakingly think Creoles are the Creoles of color, mulattoes I spoke of and that they are the only Creoles (because of modern media coverage and literature) but they are not the only ones nor were they the first ones in Louisiana. It’s lots of confusion, I know.

[@creolemomof2]

Hey Good Job Tito! My maiden name is Jolivette. Whatcha know about that?!

[@TreeManBen]

Legnon's in New Iberia. Crawfish Boudin, and Pork Boudin of my dreams. I've had all the big ones: Don's, Billy's, Best Stop, and countless others. Legnon's will always be my favorite.

[@Phyixius]

Worked in Mansfield Louisiana while in the oil fields. I used to get Boudin every morning at this general store/gas station. You gotta understand I am a yankee from idaho and thought that I was buying a sausage at the time with biscuits and gravy. When I bit into that first boudin I had to pull over because that was the greatest thing I have ever eaten in my life I was sold. from then on ate it everyday for several months. Uggh I miss it, I need to educate these yankees about boudin.

[@Waynev111]

I've watched this probably 4 times. It makes me hungry every time!

This video makes me miss home so much. A lot of our culture, we take for granted when it`s always around. Now i`m living out of state it hurts that i can`t just go up the street and get a link of boudin when i feel like it. I finally started to make my own when I can`t get back home.

[@stilllovinVdubbin]

+BIdouble94 hey man.. i feel your pain brotha. im in seattle and can't even do a real chicken n sausage gumbo cause the "louisiana sausage" at the meat shop is basically just a bar-s hot dog. registered coonass here btw bruh

[@stilllovinVdubbin]

+BIdouble94 337

[@BIdouble94]

Lol at the "louisiana sausage". I feel you. When i do get a chance to go though, I load up on everything i can.

[@BIdouble94]

@Leighton Arceneaux True. I grew up in New Orleans then moved to Lafayette for a few years when I got older. The downtown liveliness may not be there but the culture more than makes up for it. I came up in New Orleans at a time Boudin and cracklings was no where as popular as it is today. I used to get clowned for eating that "weird" food. Now those same people I talk to today on the phone, laugh at those memories. NO PLACE LIKE LOUISIANA...PERIOD!!!

[@BIdouble94]

@Leighton Arceneaux Very true. Also, I've tried boudin from other places, nothing compares to the Acadiana area unless the cook grew up in the Acadiana area.

[@shantellem.6011]

When I go home to Louisiana, I always stop in Scott and go to the best stop ! Best Boudain . Born and raised in South Louisiana, grew up eatting boudain almost daily. Took 29 years to finally find someone that sells awesome boudain . The owner is from Lafeyette . Going home in 2 weeks, can't wait to stop up .

[@brendenoleary1453]

Billy's in scott..best boudin I have ever had..HANDS DOWN!

[@nealmcroberts3917]

I've been born and raised in southern Louisiana, and I can tell you that boudin is a source of pride. It really is one of those things that is a part of our lives here, and I am so glad that some awareness is getting spread regarding our culinary culture. We do some things that seem strange to people that aren't from here, but we do it all right.

[@anon4096]

one of the best videos on munchies channel. really enjoyed it.

[@miamitreasurehunter]

I am a huge fan of Cajun culture, and this was an amazingly produced video!!

[@005658able]

For those of you who don't know, this is the real stuff. It is also the correct way to pronounce the name. I am from Opelousas , Louisiana and I am a real Cajun and proud of it. We all look for an excuse to have a good time here. Any excuse to have a party. Good food, good people, good times. This area is all about family and always will be. Charles

[@005658able]

Dorian, If I am not mistaken, this was made in plantation times by slaves. This stuff is great and tastes great. It is actually made out of really good stuff. In my area, it is made from pork roast , some pork liver, green onions, white rice and seasonings , all in the right proportions. It just depends on what you like. Contrary to what you have heard Cajun food is not just adding red pepper to it and calling it Cajun. It is the way it is cooked. Some of the best boudin I can recommend to you is around the Opelousas and Lafayette, Louisiana area. You aint done nothing til you done it with a Cajun. Stay hungry my friend. Charles

[@IslenoGutierrez]

Dorian Graye No, no, no. Boudin originates in Europe (mainly France, but is eaten in French speaking countries of Europe besides France such as Belgium and Switzerland) it was taken to Louisiana by both the French and the French Canadians (Acadians). In Europe, boudin does not use rice, it’s an all meat sausage made from meat and cream or milk. In Louisiana, there was two types of boudin in the old days, there was Cajun boudin (created by Acadians in Louisiana, whom are also called Cajuns and are white folks) and creole boudin of the New Orleans area (Creoles are Louisianians that descend from the colonial settlers of Louisiana, namely the French and/or Spanish, they can be whites or mixed race). The differences are that creole boudin is like the traditional boudin from France and that it was all meat, but cooked down with milk or cream and cajun boudin substituted rice for the milk or cream. Creole boudin all but died out over the centuries in Louisiana and is a rare find today, but cajun boudin survived and became popular in Louisiana. That’s the differences. Slaves had nothing to do with cajun boudin, that’s strictly cajun.

SW LA, Lake Charles here. For all the visitors from outside Louisiana, I can assure you that all the places shown here are LEGIT! I have eaten at most of them. I'am headed out tomorrow. It's boudin at Best Stop, boudin balls at Billy's and cracklins at Dan's. The first place that is'nt sold out of andouille (on-dewee) I am getting 5lbs of that too.

[@Spreehee]

i love how passionate the mayor is about boudin :D

[@janivoutilainen2610]

I want that guy to be my mayor.

[@HistoricalShark]

You ain’t had real boudin until you’ve had boudin from Acadiana. My fiancé and I decided to visit a lot of places featured on the show. I’m from close to the Texas border and we have some decent Boudin . But the flavor and richness of the Boudin in the Scott area is on a different level. 10 out of 10 for sure.

[@willlandry9927]

The funniest part is, i happened upon this video on a random chance, I grew up right in the middle of Acadiana, and Every Boudin, Cracklin, And specialty meats shop on here, i have been to and visit on a regular basis. I deeply appreciate this short film, and am grateful that someone took the time to share in my culture.

I wish Munchies still made stuff like this. Now every video they upload is hosted by some ignorant pseudo hipster d-bagger haha.

I swear to God I could live off boudain and ice cold Bud Light.

[@ChumboFumbo]

I'm a lifelong Texan, but my family lives so close to the border of Louisiana that I grew up eating Cajun cuisine. Boudin is a favorite among basically everyone I know. It's so popular that in local donut shops, 9 times out of 10 they sell boudin kolaches along with the classic sausage kolache.

[@cassandrawebb9768]

I was born and raised in Louisiana, currently live in Texas. I miss real Louisiana Boudin. I remember cooking cracklings in what we as kids called a witch pot. A cast iron pot so large we had to use a boat oar to stir. The best eating ever.

[@RETROtheGAMER]

I live in Gonzales (Jambalaya capital of the world), but we got boudin at every gas station as well. Every family get together my uncle brings cheese stuffed boudin balls. So happy to see southern LA get some recognition!

[@FictualKyle]

I swear they were saying "booty" for the longest time

[@IslenoGutierrez]

There used to be another version of boudin from old New Orleans and that was creole boudin (Creoles are any Louisianians of colonial settler ancestry, usually French and Spanish, so there are both whites and mixed race people that are Creoles and creole culture dominates the New Orleans area until this day). But in old New Orleans, the word boudin by itself referred to blood sausage (no rice) and the word boudin blanc referred to a white sausage containing pork meat (and sometimes with fowl added, but often not) that was binded by using French bread soaked in milk and was seasoned, but contained no rice. It was closer to boudins found in France and in the French Caribbean. But this type of boudin seemed to go extinct in New Orleans by today. The boudin found all over Louisiana now is Cajun boudin, which usually contains rice. New Orleans has adopted Cajun boudin as it’s own creole boudin has went extinct among the present-day population. True story.

[@grooviec]

god I'm french and I love boudin, especially blood boudin. I grew up on a french island and it's pretty popular in the Creole culture of the Caribbeans as well. Didn't know they had this whole subculture here in Louisiana. I've actually stopped by New Orleans and tried boudin balls at a bar with a beer after a tough night out. Remember it was pretty delicious and filling.

Also, I was born and raised in Jennings eating. Boudin King boudin but best stop has the best boudin I have eaten!! God Bless you all!!

[@IslenoGutierrez]

No boudin in New Orleans? Of course there is. New Orleans is part of South Louisiana! These people are unaware because they are not from greater New Orleans. There’s plenty of boudin in the New Orleans area...Chris’s specialty meats, Gourmet Butcher Block, Armand’s, Tre Bon, Bouree’, Cochon etc. there are plenty Cajuns in greater New Orleans too. The New Orleans westbank is the Cajun ground zero in the New Orleans area. Plus Cajuns can be found in other areas of greater New Orleans too. Greater New Orleans is not just a bunch of white Creoles or black Creoles. Well, Cajuns are Creoles too, but that’s another story. With that said, I love boudin and cracklins. Grew up eating the stuff.

Cajun born, but I live in Dallas, TX now. I travel to South Louisiana about every month or two, and I always have to take exit 7 on 49 and stop at Don's for some Boudin and cracklins. Then when I'm heading home, I automatically stop at exit 4 to hit Don's again!

Boudin from Vautrous, Church Point Louisiana is the best Boudin I have ever eaten. No fat, no bones, just delicious meat and rice.

[@riverice7]

First time I tried it was passing through Texas loved it I got some Cajun boudin from a Louisiana native. I'm from from Peru we have to get creative. We slice it put on a toasted bun top it with onions yep that's what we do.

[@rogerreynolds3268]

So true! Just had my first boudin! It was at a truck stop north of Dallas and probably the suckiest boudin in the country, but I'm hooked!!!

[@Braindead154]

I've got a 5 pound box of Don's boudin in my fridge right now, and I live 400 miles from Scott. Every time you pass through Scott, you get boudin for the home and cracklins for the road.

[@cythcy]

Great information. In the Caribbean where I’m from we make a Boudin we call it (blood pudding or rice pudding) not sure when we say “pudding” when it’s clearly encased in casings. It’s made exactly the same. Shows we are all connected from some place. It’s delicious. I’m going to keep watching these Boudin videos to learn more. Thanks.

*Boudin balls with fries plus nacho cheese on top, my Texas and Louisiana fam know what i'm talking about!* I was born in Louisiana , raised in Texas, and went to college in Lafayette. The best boudin come from butcher stores and mom & pop shops. Any spot that serves hog head cheese, cracklings and fried gizzard you know they going to have some good boudin!

Living on the outskirts of Scott, its nice to see an accurate representation of one of our food groups and our culture. Guess what I'm having for lunch?!?!? ;-)

[@crazycajun9288]

Eunice and Lafayette is where my family roots started! And if you’ve never had boudin, it’s sooooooooo good

[@FM-vh3ck]

Boudin is a traditional French dish. I ate both boudin blanc and boudin noir when I lived in France, delicious.

True talent, not growing a beard or being an idiot ...... well said Toby Ray.

Great video, wish I had daily access to boudin, got homemade once in 1987 at FLW, MO (Thank you SPC Johnson, supply, E-4-10) and I’ve had it from restaurant last time in 2016 while at Fort Hood preparing to go to Kuwait (thank you SFC Dix)…..

Man, I'm Asian and my family would but her our own pig, and my mom would make the best cracklings

[@TraderRoss]

had a hunting buddy from N.O. brought some boudin to the woods with us. Been hooked on it ever since. Walmart started carrying it. A lot of rice in it, but can't afford to get fresh boudin shipped to here.

[@B27-o2c]

Sitting here in my hometown Lake Charles, LA. Eating boudin for lunch right now. My favorite it probably Hebert’s, out of Maurice originally.

[@philaufan6]

Boudin is awesome. Love Don's boudin.

[@stevestar657]

I stop into Hammond, LA every now and again and get Boudin - and man it's good. It may not be full blood but it's certainly worth the stop!

[@TheNolanWB]

None better than at T-Boy's in Mamou, Louisiana. One of my favorites was Johnson's Grocery in Eunice. They closed the store and now have Johnson's Boucherie in Lafayette. I've been eating boudin for over sixty years. Ever since I married a Fontenot from Eunice.

Excellent little piece - I will make one note that was missed: blood boudin is very rarely sold in the state because the legislature outlawed it for a time (harvesting the blood cleanly was the main issue). While many people in the state believe it's still illegal to produce and sell, there are a very few shops that DO now sell blood boudin legally. It took lobbying and the creation of a sanitized process for gathering the blood during slaughter along with animal inspections. I believe (but am not positive) that this was first done by Bourgeois Meat Market. When you can find it, it's only about 10% more per pound - well worth the experience.

[@YohannParis]

This is amazing, I thought that Boudin and Boudin Noir was only in France. Great jobs Louisiana!

[@SenordaCosta101]

we have it in the caribbean also especially islands with a french heritage

[@YohannParis]

I'm so glad to know that good things have no frontier, and that people call it their own. Food is a culture worth to be share and not to be owned.

[@larrycooper5328]

Louisiana's culture and history are more closely related to France than England or even really anything from the early U.S.. Our culture and history are hugely influenced by France.

[@leightonarceneaux7714]

I try to go to different meat markets in and around Lafayette to sample their boudin. The next place I'm thinking of going to is Johnson's Boucaniere on St. John Street.

[@ieprince]

I like the way these guys talk.

[@bckpckmepleez5339]

Omg watching this has totally made me hungry and homesick

[@1SMACKK1]

Eatin boudin rn, boudin easily my favorite food

[@johngraves1216]

first time i had it was at the boudin kitchen, i cant remember if it is in Lake Charles or Sulfur LA. all i know is it is pretty unforgettable

[@hiroanz]

Awesome video!! One of my fondest memories growing up in Taiwan is to see pigs being butchered in the neighbourhood, and the anticipation of the good sausages to come. It taught me where food came from, and respect that's due to the pig by using every part. We didn't have any guns or bullets though, all done by special knives and bleed completely. We stuff rice in casing and bbq them too, and stuff a smaller meat sausage inside the bigger rice sausage.

[@thisisKB87]

Just cooked some delicious boudin from Billy's and came back here to rewatch this great film.
