We had an absolute bon' ton' at the Ragin' Cajuns tailgating party on Saturday! The stage was set at Cajun Field for an afternoon of pure indulgence in the best tailgating food than you could ever imagine. As far as the eye could see, there were Cajun men everywhere, grilling and frying up their best stuff and cooking succulent side dishes, jambalaya, and gumbo, too. It was a bit warm and humid, and by the time I made my way around the huge tailgating area, I was working up quite a sweat! And getting full too, as I was offered a taste and a beer at each grill, but had to stop eating and switch to water, half way through! It was a blast! Here were a few of my favorites.
This guy was grilling some Andouille sausage and boudin. Cest bon, cher!
This one was frying some chicken wings and they were finger lickin' good!
These two guys were cooking a chicken and sausage gumbo and some smothered potatoes. Both were out of this world!
And last, but not least, were these sinfully delicious grilled, stuffed jalapenos and some fresh pork sausage!
These two guys were kind enough to share the recipe with me. So quick and easy, too.
Warning: These are addictive! Fabulous!
