Deux Cochon

12/06/2012

In celebration of Portland, ME finally allowing food trucks to grace the city's streets, I'm picking up a sweet old truck next week in Brooklyn, so that a couple friends and I can play along. Chicken & waffles, poutine, biscuit waffles & gravy and various breakfast-like creations will be our focus, but blackboard randomness will also be offered to all ye late-night Old Port revelers. Will be rolling out in about a month, but will start posting photos in the meantime soon.

Dear Loyal Deux Cochon Enthusiasts -

Due to an unforseen change of wind direction, Deux Cochon has unfortunately been put on immediate kibosh. Stay tuned for future Deux Cochon battle cries. Love you all and see you around.

Meat grinder just came in the mail yesterday. ALRIGHT. Get familar with one of my favorite things to eat, cajun boudin, over the next few days. I will also be grinding pork for our sausage gravy starting tomorrow. Let's do this.

Crawfish, gumbo, and jambalaya may get all the glory when it comes to Acadian cuisine, but there is no more uniquely Cajun food than boudin. A simple food, boudin consists of cooked pork scraps, rice, onions, and seasoning stuffed into pig intestines. Nowadays, most places substitute pig intestine
