Our sister city Lafayette is holding its second annual Boudin Cook-Off on October 17, 2009 downtown. The event is free and open to the public and all proceedings go to the benefit of the Preservation Alliance of Lafayette. There will be live entertainment, a cooking competition, a boudin eating contest and much more.

Bob, the event coordinator, told me via email that he’d love to see boudin makers from Baton Rouge join in to spice the competition up a bit. I encourage any Baton Rougean to enter into the competition and represent our great city in this Cajun cooking competition. (If you do enter, be sure to let us know!)

If you’re looking for a good, family-friendly event with great cajun food and entertainment, this looks like a great event. You can find out more information on their web site.

This recipe was sent to the Baton Rougean via email today. I’m not quite sure who it’s from or why they sent it to me, but I figured why not post it? Note that I have no cooking experience so I have no idea if this is a legitimate recipe or not.
