To wet to smoke

Postby JaCK2U2 » Sat May 02, 2009 1:05 pm

Wet, drizzly,nasty.....so, I dug out some butts from the deep freeze. Thought I'd make some sausage. I believe I'll end up with 8 lbs. of breakfast sausage, 8 lbs. of italian, and I don't know how much boudin. After I started, I went for my casings, and, well, I didn't have any. OK, bulk breakfast and italian. I guess I'll have a whole bunch of boudin balls, and some bulk boudin for patties. I'll remember to check for casings next time before I start. I'll post the finished pics later!

Got it done, but it was late, so I didn't get a pic until this morning. I'm set for a little while. I did have some boudin and eggs for supper. Good stuff!

I appreciate the offer, but kinda late in the day :wink: ---- I had casings, but we bought a new fridge, and somewhere in the transfer, my casings got lost. Oh well, I've been wanting to try boudin balls. And, I've heard that bulk boudin, fried up in a patty, is pretty good eating. Guess I'll find out!

Well, I have the boudin balls done. I rolled some in bread crumbs and baked them at 350. Not to bad! When I have a little time,I'm going to roll in breadcrumbs, and cook in a frying pan half filled with oil, and see the difference. Of course, my wife thinks they're to hot - imagine that! The rest of the sausage later!

Never been a huge fan of boudin, but I sure would like to sample a couple of those! Looks really good.

I am going to have to try some crawfish boudion - I do like crawfish, and the combination sounds just right. May have to find a recipe and give that a shot!
