I have been working on my menu for my Christmas Eve buffet and decided to add this scrumptious, melt in your mouth Cajun recipe that will wow your family and guests and have them coming back for more! And the bourbon glaze is out of this world, too, cher! Bon appetit!

Cajun Pork Roast  w/ Honey Bourbon Glaze

Few shakes Worcestershire sauce

Rub Cajun seasoning over pork and  and place in 13x9 inch baking pan. Roast at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325 degrees and add broth, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco to pan, scraping any pork drippings.  Coat with half of the glaze over the pork and roast for 30 minutes longer basting occasionally. Add the remaining glaze and continue baking for 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees. Let stand for 10 minutes before carving.

Bayou Boogie

Here's another little clip that I took at Festival Acadiens on the Sunday afternoon at the Main Stage. The crowd was dancin' up a storm to the fabulous Wayne Toups and Zydecajun band. Crank it up for this one and let the good times roll, cher!
