I have been stopping at Bosco's Specialty Meats since they opened. Mainly, I have been after…read moresnacks, and meats to take home. Let me say, that they have the best Chicken Cracklin's in the State of Louisiana that I have had. I'm still researching this issue, but right now I'll stand by that determination. These Chicken Cracklin's are meaty, crispy, and delicious. Next, we have our Cajun Meat Products. These include boudin, sausages, stuffed products, and more. Including smoked meat products, which are lower in fat and have a stronger flavor, which is great for use as seasoning meats. Most of these are available as frozen or refrigerated. The latter allows one to pick up something for supper! Only recently have I been to Bosco's for a sit down meal. They have menu options, including some impressive burgers. There are also daily specials which are indicated on a menu board. In my most recent visit, lasagna was the star of the show! I opted for the Club Sandwich instead which was very satisfying indeed. There are a few tables in the center of the store, which are nice. However, one can get things to go, and there is even a drive through window.

But then I tried Kartchners! Boudin is a preference thing and you have many options. For me, the spice, texture, and flavor is what stands out here.

Don's has the classic gas station setup, a ready to eat counter with BBQ and Cajun options, snack aisles, and fridge full of Cajun specialties. We ordered cracklings, boudin balls and crawfish pie. The boudin balls were the stand out. The cracklings were fresh and crunchy, but the seasoning is underwhelming. The crawfish pie missed the mark completely, not much crawfish, very doughy and the seasoning was pretty bland. Compared to the undisputed champion (looking at you, Billy's) with huge lines 24/7, Don's is a good option if you're willing to trade some of the quality with the convenience of no wait time.

For lots of people from out of town it is a must stop at while in Western Louisiana for some of their wonderful Boudin or their nearly world famous jalapeño sausage cheese bread. As you walk into the store the sweet smell of meat being gently smoked wafts through the store. The boudin election is impressive and ranges from green onion to traditional, crawfish in season, deer, and a newer jalapeño boudin. They sell fresh and frozen - including all kinds of interesting and fun things like boudin egg rolls (oh yes - really - and they are mmm mmmm good), boudin balls, étouffe, gumbo, hogshead cheese, cracklins, and more In addition to the specialty meats they are also known for their jalapeño sausage cheese bread. Mmm that's good. Definitely worth a stop for specialty meats and food and for anything else you can honestly image you would need. It's a gem of a place

Waited almost 5 minutes for one of the 5 employees standing around to help me. When finally waited on I was looked at like " well ", After I had been standing there for a while. Then they took forever to get half a pound of cracklings, as well as talking to another employee before completing my order. I literally had to say " excuse me but I need to Go!" Met with "I was talking to him about food! " " I was already standing here for 5 minutes or so waiting for help" " I was in the back and she's training" First off, that is not my problem but if I had been met with " OUR apologies for your wait, how can we help you" or had the trainee said " I'm in training and will be with you as soon as my trainer returns" i would have been more understanding and appreciated their acknowledgment ". Alas, I don't get paid to train Billy's staff on proper customer service but wish whoever is would do a better job. Definitely won't patronize the Opelousas store again.
