boudin now boudin is a cajun sausage it includes all parts of the pig mixed with rice mixed with spices filled into a natural casing that is the fastest unraveling intestines i've ever seen in my life around here it's not just a sausage it's a part of the culture it's a way of life so this morning we are at the best supermarket we're gonna learn about boudin we're gonna see how it's made we're gonna feast and i can't wait to share this entire learn about this cajun way of life all right let's let's go so again welcome to scott louisiana and again this is the capital of boudin in louisiana in the world i believe i was reading that they sell more boudin in scott louisiana than anywhere else on the planet i had never heard of boudin until coming here but it is without a doubt one of the ultimate of all cajun foods that you can possibly have and it's just loved by everyone in cajun country and cajun culture let's let's go to the factory we met up with blade yes sir awesome to meet you we're about to head into the boudin factory do you say boudin boudin almost the the n is not pronounced too strongly boudin boudin we're about to head into the boudin factory so we gotta suit up oh yeah all right oh okay okay i shaved there you go so what brings you an adventure of uh you know y'all have a food show yeah uh just a youtube food show oh really all about food so we're awesome we're traveling around uh thailand thailand yeah thank you yup we're from thailand but my my parents are in arizona so so we're normally based in arizona if we're in the us and so we were in new orleans and then we just decided to come on over here for the amazing cajun food nice boy i came to a great location that's for sure yes we're suited and ready now we're entering the plant here we go i can immediately smell that smokiness [Music] so that just slices it [Music] so yeah the liver is sliced whenever you eat boudin i think liver is one of the main components right you really taste that liver that's correct that's a good little flavor to it as well the richness yeah flavor so this is just the liver slicing room this is like one of the main rooms all right so where all the cooking goes down everything is cooked it's the right temperature the rice ball rest let's go walk with this cool it smells incredible in here you smell that seasoning that spice and the meatiness is just within the air oh this is where i think all of the yeah this is where it happens the boudin happens a 900 pound rice cooker that rice is cooked and then in goes that's like a straight-up meat dispenser which i think is a combination of the meats and the livers already cooked and then ground up on top of the rice awesome [Music] so onions and bell peppers go into this massive cauldron over here and then it's all combined and then mixed together this is some serious state-of-the-art boudin making machinery mixed together okay so this is the mixture ready to go the final room here is once that boudin mixture is ready then this is the stuffing room and so it goes into that funnel and then it just comes out to shoot into the natural casing the casing the casing is intestines okay all right uh that is the fastest unraveling intestines i've ever seen in my life that is a beautiful thing you could watch that all day long pumps it out [Music] good morning [Music] [Music] so they're gonna be making about six thousand pounds of food a product a day six thousand pounds today wow wow yes that is a volume amount that's why they're just pumping it out that's the most boudin i've seen in one place ever [Music] so that's the state of the art pretty new facility where they wholesale where they make gigantic quantities of boudin and then over here is where they have the retail store which is facing the road which is where you can go to buy your boudin locally and eat it and then also where they're doing some of the this is the old place where they used to make the boudin as well so walking into this door here was actually where the buddha originally started in 1986. okay so our crackling actually starts in this room right here to pre-cook pre-cooking that goes in about a pot for about 15 minutes at about 350 degrees and it comes down to a product right here is it's a pre-cooked crack the cracklin room oh you smell that bubbling pork skin aroma and is it common to eat cracklin along with boudin or do they often go together oh yes okay spice goes with that for sure okay all right oh man there's three just gigantic bubbling bats of pork i love the way it bubbles up that's just pure melted big fat okay it will fly [Music] so and now finally we're ending up in the this would be the grocery store right the grocery store which is kind of like the front of the place where where you can get cooked foods cooked boudin oh then also a full kind of mini market grocery store that's right you get your groceries and meals all in the same place yeah that that is something great about louisiana is the little grocery family-run grocery shops that's right that i love yeah this is the boiled boudin all right and that's the smokey banana okay oh man and so we got one of the boiled boudin one of the smoke oh wow that texture you can feel the the squeeziness of it the softness of it the skin is natural pig intestines which you some people eat the skin some people don't but i know i like the skin [Applause] oh wow [Applause] it's so tasty oh the meatiness of it you get that texture and richness from the liver the rice is just kind of gooey and completely almost melted into the meat mixture wow that is extraordinary flavor oh it's so good again some people like to eat the skin some people don't because it's quite it is a little bit chewy a little bit elasticy so other people just kind of squeeze it out like a toothpaste is that correct almost kind of like squeeze it out of the oh we have some [Applause] [Music] [Applause] all that flavor the onions in there the spices that mix of meat i like how they're grind the grind of their meat is not too fine so you still chew the texture of the meat you feel the texture of the meat which i think is incredible it's not too smooth but it's not too coarse either let's try the smoked let's try that smoke [Applause] wow yeah an extra dimension of smokiness the casing has sort of broken down so it's easier to chew it's easier to break off it snaps you've got all that amazing cajun seasoning and flavor plus the meat and rice but then an extra dimension of smokiness [Applause] oh man that is outrageously addictive okay and then we got some of the crackling a lot of the fat has almost even rendered down um so you're left with that crispy ultra crispy skin and that meat oh yeah all that crunchiness of the skin oh wow that is porky it's just a porky heaven and remarkably it's not oily it doesn't feel too heavy it's still good i love that little cut off end of the link section wow i don't think i can choose a favorite between boiled or or smoked they're both they both have an attraction to them and with the rice it makes it a complete meal in one casing this is actually my grandfather's face he said you can fool most people most of the time but you can't fool their taste buds you can fool most people most of the time but you can't pull their taste buds oh 1986 that's my year very cool and to see how yeah bringing boudin now to the world that's correct yes sir very cool very cool yeah just amazing to see the production and to taste the boudin so i had to order i saw on the menu the mr robert burger boudin and beef patty so i'm going to have a burger and then i'm also going to get some more boudin and some other boudin balls and a selection of what they have in this hot cabinet just one of each yeah sure okay we're together thanks you very much all right have a great day yes we will thanks thank you very much thank you have a great day so really almost everybody that buys boudin they take it to go probably eat it in their car on their way to the next place because you don't want to go far with it but they do have just a couple of really small picnic tables which are in the sun right now so we'll just use these tables to to sit and eat but yeah almost everybody takes it to go you don't want to go far with this boudin though especially when it's cooked this is definitely the boudin on top let's open this up oh yes there it is that's the boiled boudin oh wow those are heavy you can see how they're just bloated with juices and meat okay and then this one must be the smoked oh yeah immediately you can feel how much lighter the smoked ones are because that moisture has been removed in the smoking process probably they had the whole deep-fried cabinet and i kind of got one of everything yeah the boudin balls the i think there's cheese in these balls and there's these are egg rolls with boudin and a variety of things so we got the fried foods and then lastly from the kitchen i had to order the the mr robert burger which is mr robert is the owner this burger i saw has a burger patty plus boudin on it or maybe the burger patty is boudin yes oh man that is thick [Applause] and even though i tasted the boudin already i just have to pick up a whole boudin and take a bite i love she didn't cut it this time yes look at the size of that i wish you could feel that texture it's so beautifully squishy and oh it feels so soft so meaty that casing oh wow i mean you can just tell why boudin is a way of life in cajun country the flavor oh it's just so good that squeeze move the softness of it okay let's try the burger the mr robert boudin burger that bun is really soft the giant um boudin i think that must be boudin that's uncased into a burger there's pickles there's onions there's tomato in here and mustard and mayonnaise [Music] oh yeah the flavor of that boudin just in patty formation the pepper in there the mustard in there i love that contrast of the pickles even the bread is different it's more like a steamed roll it tastes like oh you know the only difference is i think there's no rice in the patty so i think it's more more of a meat mixture than uh without the rice but that same seasoning that great goodness of the boudin oh that is hearty that's tasty i love that cajun seasoning okay and then the variety of fried things will start with the big ball which i believe this might be filled with cheese boudin let's just break it open oh no this one is no cheese oh yeah like a deep fried boudin ball really good too it's a little more bready bready feeling um and fluffy guess we'll just try the next ball not totally sure what the difference is in this one i don't think there's cheese in it it does feel a little more creamy though has a little bit of a different taste also really good and then i'll just try all three of these egg rolls should i break it yeah see what's inside of this one wow it's a very thick casing oh looks like boudin on the center all things boudin in different formations next one let's tear this open this one tastes a little bit milder there might even be cheese there might even be cheese mixed with in here because it does now that i think about it you do taste like that kind of sticky salty cheesiness of it as well okay and then final egg roll what could be inside of this one oh this one looks totally different i'm not even totally sure what that is almost has a potato starchiness to it oh but that cajun seasoning comes in so nicely the pepper's in there i'm going back to the boudin smoked yeah okay the deep fried balls the egg rolls they're good but for me i just like the pure boudin that's the best that's the highlight both smoked and boiled both good equally attractive in their own way put the smoke on i love that snap of the casing of the intestines yeah definitely the smoked one you can really eat the cajun no problem the boiled one it's it is really quite chewy so if you take a small bite you can eat it all otherwise you i think it is best to do the toothpaste squeeze method all the green onions in there [Music] the softness of the boiled one [Music] squeezing boudin is a feeling that never gets old i'm dripping it's a very warm day in scott louisiana and that's gonna wrap up this tour of boudin at the best stop supermarket everything together in a single
