Texas has a Boudin Trail?

[58limited]

I know Louisiana has a Boudin Trail (more than one depending on who you talk to) but I never knew that Texas has one too. This month's Texas Highways magazine declares that I-10 from Houston to Orange at the Louisiana border is the Texas Boudin Trail. They even spelled 'boudin' correctly.

No. 1 on the list? Redbird BBQ right here in my area. I talked with Amir, the owner, today and he is as excited as I've seen him:

1701 BBQ in Beaumont has great boudin too but did not make the list. I can't help but wonder if Texas Highways tried theirs.

One of our Regional Directors transferred to Michigan from Mississippi and brought me a large package of Boudin. I really liked it but don't see that up here.

Boudin balls are the bomb!

I can confirm that you can grind meat for sausage in a food processor. keeping the grind size consistent is a bit of a crap shoot, but it can be done good enough.

He did bring some of those Boudin balls to the Leadership meeting also for our hospitality room. All great

Boudin would be a good team cook recipe. It isn't a cured sausage, and you don't have to use a casing. Maybe next year, I'll think to suggest it.

The Boudin Hut, mentioned in the article, has the best boudin balls.

I can confirm that! 😋

I’ve only had what I would call great boudin balls once. It was at a place out in the country just outside College Station, Tx.
