Bayou Boudin A Cajun Meatery — Restaurant in Hammond

Ran across Bayou Boudin a Cajun Meatery via Door Dash & Surprise!, They had Crawfish & Shrimp items that I could eat (as a Pescatarian)!! This order is from 10 days ago, the nicer PoBoy picks are from today.

Overall Decent to Good Food! & Very Reasonable Prices. Plus Unique Seafood Offerings NOT easily found elsewhere! Just be sure to check Your Order before You leave to ensure it is correct!

I ordered the following (Yeah I over ordered intentionally, I was a little exited I found new food I could eat): 1 - Crawfish Pie 1 - Crawfish Boudin PoBoy 1 - Shrimp Boudin (Link) 1 - Crawfish Boudin Link Pak 1 - Bayou Brownie

** CRAWFISH PIE — 4 out of 10 I have a low spice tolerance, so keep that in mind. I found the Crawfish Pie a decent, regular sized (not small like Tiger PoBoy) - about Hand sized, sufficiently Flaky Crust with a bit of Spice. But, overall a bit “Meh”, can’t give a definitive reason, but I wasn’t impressed, but was Good Enough to Eat. Q:WOULD I REORDER IT? Probably not

** CRAWFISH BOUDIN POBOY - 6-7 out of 10 It is NOT “DRESSED” like normal PoBoys. It is simply crawfish Boudin on what I think is bread used for their Hot Dogs. It does seem small without all the Dressing, but it does a pretty good job of being filling. So, Crawfish, Breading, Cheese, maybe rice? The 1st time I got one it was wrapped in plastic wrap so the steam turned it more mushy than it should have been. Thankfully, that only happened once, all the other times it was wrapped without the plastic! Q:WOULD I ORDER IT AGAIN? A=YES! & I have a couple of times! The Crawfish Boudin Links aren’t bad either!

** Shrimp Boudin Link - 5 out of 10 Just a link by itself, Shrimp & Rice in a Case. Just a heads up - The Case is not Vegetarian. Has some Spice to it, I would give it a middle of the road 5 out of 10. It looks very white, but don’t let the color put you off trying it. Q:WOULD I ORDER IT AGAIN? A= Maybe

** CRAWFISH BOUDIN LINK PAK Sadly, I did not check what I received until the following day, which is when I discovered they sent me PORK Boudin instead of CRAWFISH Boudin. Which doesn’t do a Pescatarian much good, as I can’t eat it. Thankfully there is someone in the household that can eat it so it isn’t totally going to waste. However, LESSON LEARNED - CHECK YOUR ORDRG IMMEDIATELY UPON RECEIPT! or Before You Leave!

** BAYOU BROWNIE According to price sticker left on the Brownie, the Door Dash price is more than double. This is just a brownie, a decent good brownie that satisfies One’s sweet craving. Q: WOULD I ORDER IT AGAIN? A = Yes! It hit the sweet spot.

This Boudin Vendor is located inside an Exxon Gas Station (yeah I caught snit for that twice from my family until they tried the food! laughs!) BUT, because of the Seafood offerings (aka food I could eat), I gave them a shot, and I don’t regret it! So, when I’m in the mood for something different, I’ll grab a Crawfish Boudin...

Bayou Boudin, prepare to be sick of me! I just got a job nearby this gas station and my coworkers joke that they have everything.. and they do! Not only that, but the fresh, hot food offered inside by Bayou Boudin is phenomenal. I have been greeted by Tracey and Jay who are so friendly and helpful. I wasn't going to get anything today, but meat pies sounded too good. So, I went to the counter to make my first Bayou Boudin purchase. Well today was my lucky day because I was offered samples of red beans, crawfish queso w cracklins (chicharrones), pepper jack boudin balls, and the chicken cracklin bites with drizzled sauce. All of it was delicious. I love that they have special sauces to go with it all. Plenty of gas stations in LA have fried food, but this is worth getting next time you’re around downtown hammond. They have a couple high-top tables for waiting or seating as well. I can't wait to try the seasoned...

From such an unassuming place this was the absolute best food I had my whole road trip. You won't really have a place to sit and it's inside a gas station store but let me tell you...the Boudin Balls with cheese were freakin amazing. The chicken cracklins were like crack for my kids. The meat pies were great. The chicken tenders were amazing too. It was all so good, even my kids who are picky were in love. The dips were so good with it too. I just can't say enough GO TRY THIS. And the employees were all super friendly and helpful. So glad we went out of our way to stop...
