BOUDIN BALLS
The textural contrast between the crispy outside and moist, savory inside is a wonder to behold. The taste is just as impressive. Intensely flavorful and satisfying, these boudin balls would win any Big Game food table on which they appeared. Hint, hint. Serve with remoulade sauce.

Steps:
- Stir pork shoulder, livers, onion, celery, poblano pepper, jalapeno pepper, garlic, kosher salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons ground black pepper, chili powder, and 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper together in a large pot. Cover the pot with a lid and refrigerate until flavors combine, 2 hours to overnight.
- Pour enough water into the pork mixture to cover by 2-inches; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from heat. Pour mixture through a strainer, reserving strained liquid and meat separately.
- Transfer drained meat mixture to a cutting board and finely chop.
- Stir chopped meat, rice, parsley, and green onion together in a bowl. Gradually add reserved cooking liquid, 1 ladleful at a time, to meat mixture, stirring until completely incorporated between each addition, until mixture has a paste-like consistency. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours to overnight.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Roll chilled meat mixture into 1-inch balls.
- Whisk flour, 1 pinch cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper together in a shallow bowl. Pour breadcrumbs into another shallow bowl. Beat eggs in another shallow bowl.
- Gently press 1 ball into flour mixture to coat; shake off the excess flour. Dip ball into the beaten egg; press ball into bread crumbs. Place breaded ball onto a plate and repeat breading process with remaining meat balls.
- Working in batches, cook boudin balls in preheated oil, turning once, until crispy on the outside and hot on the inside, 3 to 4 minutes.

CRAWFISH BOUDIN BALLS, ANDOUILLE GRITS AND COLLARD GREEN CHOWCHOW
Steps:
- For the collard green chowchow: Combine the collard greens, cabbage, green tomatoes, red onions, bell peppers, mustard seed and turmeric in a nonreactive heatproof bowl. Bring the vinegar and sugar to a boil, then pour over the vegetables. Marinate for at least 1 hour.
- For the andouille grits: Render the andouille in a skillet over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes. Add the stock, milk and cream, and bring to boil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the grits and cook, stirring frequently, for 30 to 40 minutes. Finish off with the Gouda and green onions. Keep warm.
- For the crawfish boudin balls: In a large pan over medium-high heat, saute the celery, garlic, onions and bell peppers in the olive oil and butter for 12 minutes, until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, pulse half of the crawfish a couple times in a food processor. Add the chopped crawfish and the whole crawfish to the pan of vegetables; saute for 10 minutes. During cooking, add the lemon juice, breadcrumbs, crab boil, Parmesan, Creole spice and rice. Finish off with the green onions and parsley. Spread on a baking sheet and let cool.
- Roll the boudin mixture into six balls. Arrange the flour, egg wash and panko in separate bowls; season with salt and pepper. Dredge the balls in flour, dip in egg wash and coat in panko.
- Deep-fry the boudin balls at 350 degrees F for 7 to 10 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve two boudin balls to a plate, accompanied by grits and chowchow.

Steps:
- Heat a smoker to 180° to 200°F, preferably using a mixture of oak, hickory, and pecan.
- Season the pork butt liberally with salt and the rub, place in a large pan, and transfer to the smoker. Cook for about 6 hours. Remove the pork from the smoker, cover the pan with a lid or tented foil, and transfer to a 250°F oven. Cook until you can pull the meat apart with a gentle tug, about 2 additional hours. Remove from the oven, let cool, and shred the pork. Set aside. Reserve the pan juices.
- While the pork is cooking, purée 4 cloves of garlic, the onion, celery, and bell peppers in a food processor. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat and sauté the onion mixture until all of the moisture has evaporated.
- Add the chicken stock, 3/4 cup of the reserved stock, the cayenne, bay leaves, thyme, and sage and bring to a boil. Add the popcorn rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and set aside.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and duck livers and sauté until browned, about 7 minutes. Set aside.
- Brush the green onions with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Either grill them until they are lightly charred, about 2 minutes, or sauté until the edges brown, about 4 minutes. Chop finely.
- In a large bowl, using your hands, mix together the pulled pork, cooked rice, duck livers, and green onions, then form the mixture into golf ball-size balls.
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large heavy-bottomed pan to 350°F. (The oil should be at least 3 inches deep.) Meanwhile, spread the flour on a plate, put the beaten eggs in a shallow bowl, and spread the bread crumbs on a separate plate. Dredge the boudin balls in the flour, then the beaten eggs, and then the bread crumbs and carefully drop into the hot oil. Working in batches, fry them until brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Remove boudin from casing; mix in fresh chiles.
- Shape mixture into balls about the size of a golf ball or smaller.
- Dip in beaten egg mixture and then into seasoned bread crumbs.
- I like to either use a large bowl with the bread crumbs in it and tossing 10 balls in it at a time and"tossing" to coat.
- [Bestto coat only as many balls as you can fry at one time; seasoning gets soggy if allowed to sit].
- Or, put bread crumbs in a large plastic bag, add balls, and"shake".
- Heat approx 1 1/2 inch of oil in a large, heavy bottomed (cast iron is excellent) skillet.
- Deep fat fry balls at 375 degrees (temp may be lowered, but no lower than 345 degrees) until golden brown, about 10 minutes per batch.
- Drain on paper towels.
