Bourgeois Meat Market

"The story of Bourgeois Meat Market began more than 120 years ago. In 1891, a man named Valerie Jean-Batiste Bourgeois began slaughtering one pig or cow at a time and peddling the resulting fresh cuts by horse and carriage to bayou hamlets; not returning home until the entire animal had been sold. Refrigeration allowed Valerie to open a permanent storefront, where he smoked sausage and made hog's head cheese and boudin among other local delicacies. Over the years, the meat market attracted a loyal following." A few generations later, Bourgeois Meat Market is still going strong. The best beef jerky around!! Other family favorites: hogshead cheese, boudin, and their awesome hot boudin burrito
