In Scott, the boudin competition is in full force. Within a couple blocks, you can find an…read moreimpressive concentration of Cajun specialty food stores. 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.

Who Dat looking for cracklings and boudin? Kartchner's Specialty Meats is our favorite place to…read moreget some. You too should come see, unless you are busier than a gator at a feeding frenzy. Spicy taste straight from the swamplands of Lafayette. It is a must stop for us, on our way to Florida each year. The boudin and cracklings are sold by weight and in my opinion, very formidable. Some may even say, around here, "C'est bon!" The inside has a few tables to sit and eat as well as a few picnic tables outside. The bathrooms are clean and make a nice pit stop for our road trip. Just make sure you Geaux early enough before they ain't dere no more.

I was in town for one day and I went to 4 spots trying to find the best boudin. Kartchner's was my…read morefavorite. The flavor was perfectly salty and spicy and the boudin balls were perfectly fried and still juicy on the inside.

It is pronounced Lag-Knee-App, make sure you say it that way a lot when you come visit us. All the cool kids do. Best Stop is a must stop for anyone road tripping along I-10 in Louisiana. Who needs a Bucees when you have this place. The aforementioned boudin balls are the best road trip snack ever. Fried spicy, cheesy, delectable delights. On my most recent visit, I got their in house made beef jerky, homemade pork skins, the boudin balls and some jalapeno honey mustard to take home. All of it wonderful. One of my buddies who I was road tripping with, was smart enough to bring a cooler. He bought frozen boudin balls, a few pounds of boudin, some smoked sausage and some sort of stuffed chicken. This place has all kinds of meat! I was jealous and I will definitely bring a cooler next time.

I love this place. I'm new here to Lafayette and I was looking for a butcher shop. Someone told…read moreme about Martin Kirk. I GSP'd it and thought I was on a wild goose chase because it looks like you are going on a drive out to the country. I then spotted it. It's a small place with really nice people working there...who took the time to tell me everything I asked about their meat and deals. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for fresh meat and not packaged.

This review is based on my visit on June 25, 2025…read more I have seen this advertised in the Saint Joseph's church bulletin for a long time and finally decided to run in here instead of Piggly Wiggly. I run in because I'm going to make a Cajun spaghetti so I need ground meat, sausage, and decided to just do a jar sauce instead of making it from scratch. Was definitely having a conversation with one of the workers who was stocking the shelves on the spaghetti aisle about making it from scratch or the jar. Well, I decided to go jar and bring everything up to the counter and had the pleasure of encountering Edra. I put my things on the counter, keeping in mind I have never been into the store before and chose to go here over Piggly Wiggly, Edra begins checking me out and looks at me and says everyone is coming in here for spaghetti today. I say oh we all must be on the same wavelength. Then she proceeds to say, "y'all are all lazy because y'all don't make your sauce from scratch." It took every being of my cell to not react to this very out of line statement. I don't care who you are, how old you are, what position you hold calling customers that are choosing to come to your store over other grocery stores that I had to pass up to get here is flat out rude. I just looked at her smiled and said I hope that you have a great day. She did not bother to hand me the receipt or the bags I had to walk around the counter, grab the bags and the receipt and I walked out. Needless to say, I will not be shopping there anymore and will happily choose Piggly Wiggly any day. It really pains me to say this because I do believe in local shops and if it would've been any other day, I probably would have not been very nice to Edra

What's a boneless stuffed chicken? Well. Just that. It's a deboned chicken that is stuff with a variety of dressings which could be based with alligator, rice, crawfish, shrimp, or cornbread just to name a few from memory. These chickens are absolutely wonderful to cook and delicious to eat. You basically put it into a pan, bake for an hour or so (check each one for the time and temp) and then boom, dinner for 4. I have friends and relatives back home in Chicago who have me bring these up frozen on a regular basis (and by the dozen I might add). If you want the best stuffed chickens on the planet, Hebert's is your stop. Enjoy!

I wanted to bring to your attention an experience I had during my most recent visit to Nunu's in…read moreYoungsville. When I came into the store earlier, I could clearly hear employees in the back arguing with one another. The situation was loud enough to be heard from the shopping area, and I found it to be very unprofessional and quite disturbing while I was trying to shop. As a customer, I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect, especially from a local grocery store that prides itself on serving the community. Hearing employees raise their voices and argue openly gives a negative impression and makes the environment uncomfortable for shoppers. Because of this experience, I have decided to take my business elsewhere. I recently shopped at Rouses and found the staff there to be noticeably more professional, courteous, and friendly. The cashiers were polite, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming and pleasant -- exactly what customers hope to find in their local grocery store. I am thoroughly disappointed with the experience I had at Nunu's in Youngsville, and based on this incident, I am unlikely to return. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and addresses the behavior of the staff to ensure other customers don't encounter the same issue.

I saw Iverstines in a YouTube clip and it looked intriguing. Apparently it's intriguing to lots of people because it was packed when we went. Despite the crowd, the wait was brief and the staff was friendly and keeping people moving. On our first visit we got sandwiches. The Cuban was a great choice. It was everything a Cuban should be. I would've liked more mustard but it was the best Cuban I've had in BR. Next trip we did a plate lunch. At the recommendation of a dude in line, I got the Tri tip. Solid choice. The green beans on the side were very good. In addition to the lunches, Iverstine is a full butcher. I will report back when I try some of their pre packed stuff. PS. They sell a hat with a piece of bacon on it that says Thiccccc. If anyone wants to get me that as a Christmas gift, I promise to change my profile photo to me in that hat.
