Inside Cormier's
A fully stocked meat case.
Boudin Bath
Interesting.  At first I was worried when I saw the murky water the links were swimming in.  However, the au jus bath probably adds to the link's depth of flavor.
Ambiance: This country store is a wonderful place to shop for Cajun specialties.  The folks who work there are really nice and the meats looked fresh and delicious. It really is a country store.  There isn't much else going on out there between Scott and Sunset.
Location: 792 Main Street Cankton, LA 70584-5926 - (337) 668-4467
The Boudin
Price: $3.59 per lb.
Presentation: The links are bathing in an au jus from which they are fished out of, plated in a clamshell, and cut in half (the cutting is optional).
Casing
: Springy and not easily broken.  Better for squeezing.
Meat/Rice Ratio: More meat than rice.  Lots more meat.
Texture: Really wet and juicy with lots of shredded pork.  The filling literally spills out of the casing.
Spice: Hot - not too hot, but it has some heat.
Overall Flavor:  Spectacular.  This link is packed with meaty goodness and is accented by a delicious green onion flavor that is clean and crisp.  There may be a tad too much juice.  The au jus bath is unusual, but the results are great.
Comments:  This place is worth a shot.  The link is meaty and was described as being like a plate lunch in a casing.  I say YUM!
