Firstly, let me start with the service. The ladies that work there and there were many of them were so very kind and attentive. Secondly, I ordered a crawfish pie and I have had many things growing up as a southerner, but I have yet to taste something as delicious as the crawfish pie. The price was $2.99! At Billy's, you can also buy fresh frozen items like, chicken breast stuffed with boudin, jalapeño smoked sausage and other deliciousness! If you are traveling down I-10... stop at the Scott exit and give them a try! read more

Best boudin I have ever had in my life. It's a busy place. Plan on a bit of time before you get your order, but it's very much worth it. Everything we had there was fresh, home made style and the people were super helpful and kind. The Crawfish boudin is also to die for. read more

If you are looking for a good place to stop, rest, grab snacks and food to eat on the road, this is your place! This is a popular tourist spot so they stay busy! There are two bathrooms (one for each men/]women) so they only allow for one person at a time. If you have an ice chest and want to grab some meat to travel home with they have a lot of choose from. Or you can choose from their hot items like crawfish pies or cracklings! I highly recommend both! They are amazing!!!! They also have your regular drinks and convenience store items to choose from! A great place to stop!! read more

Basically a convenience store with all the fried goods ready to grab and go. Had the pepper jack boudin ball, crawfish boudin ball and fried corn. All very good! People were friendly and even grabbed some frozen boudin to take back home. 4 stars only because we had no clue what to get and there nothing there to describe or tell you what's what, thank goodness a nice guy next to us told us what was the best. Great stop to grab and go on the road! read more

3400th Review Smoked Boudin and Seasoned Cracklins the perfect lunch for a road-trip. I've been eating these Cajun delicacies all my life and Billy's is doing our culture cuisine justice on many levels. This is a destination so plan ahead, you should expect long lines, fortunately they have plenty of room to accommodate the masses. My intention was to drive though but after seeing the line wrapped completely around the building I decided to go inside and of course the line was wrapped around the entire space and believe me it's no small space - I am sure there were fifty people in front of me and once I got served the line was still out the door, I applaud the employees for their efficiency and their ability to provide each customer with the best service and always a smile. The wait time is ridiculous, but then again it's well worth the wait no matter how long the line is. You'll have plenty of time to figure out your order even if you change your mind a dozen times. Every local knows the deal here and I could see the out of towners may struggle a little if they aren't familiar with the descriptions (they'll be better the next time they stop in and they will stop in again). I figured it out before I took the exit off I-10 it's a no brainer for those of us born and raised in Louisiana - the prices uhm does it really matter, in my mind this place doesn't really have much competition even those there are a number of these cajun specialty shops in the immediate area. The cracklins here come in two varieties, I prefer the seasoned cracklins but the salt cracklins are also available - boudin comes in many varieties and styles some like it mushy, I tend to gravitate to a more dryer version with a crispy casing that snaps when you bite into it and throw in the smoked version and I'm all in. Fried Boudin Balls, well it's easy to eat and the perfect choice for a meal on the run I was torn between the original and the pepper-jack cheese version but I'm more of a traditionalist so I opted for the original - soooo good. The staff is so friendly, they always help out the clueless and it's seem patience is the key - there's plenty of food so relax you'll get yours in time... read more

Doesn't get much better than Billy's for Cajun specialties in Lafayette. Boudin balls, cracklins, etc here are superior than Best Stop and the other competitors. Only downside is if there is a line; don't think it's worth wasting a hour waiting in line personally. read more

Let me just say that I have eaten Boudin all my life. But feel as if I should say I haven't eaten Boudin until today. No disrespect to those that I have had in the past so I'll say that there are two purveyors of Boudin, Billy's and everyone else. Sorry, best I could do. Let's start with the Boudin Balls. I had the Shrimp and the Pepper Jack. Off the hook would be an understatement so let's say it was off 4 hooks. Crispy on the outside soft and well seasoned on the inside. If I had to say a favorite it would be Shrimp of course. Scott Louisiana might disagree as a whole but this is my review and y'all can argue w/ your Ma. I said Shrimp. In fact, truth be told I would have loved to see more cheese inside the Pepper jack. But I'm a Mouse by nature and my love for cheese is going to lead to Counseling. Next up Boudin. Listed in the order of preference Billy's (Smoked) Crawfish and then Original. Now I should say that there is not a lot of difference except the flavor in the name. That Smoke flavor though. Again Scott La. argue with yo Ma. Just be happy y'all live in the Boudin capital. I obviously didn't get enough because my family polished it off as if the bought it. Tomorrow somebody is going to drive with me for 2 hours to get some to freeze and take back to California. Absolutely worth the drive as well as the lines. The lines I hear can be legendary especially the morning. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. Btw, my only problem is that the young girl taking my order didn't pack my Seasoned. Cracklins. Still 5 stars y'all. I'm going back. read more

Of all the things I had driving from Los Angeles/Texas/NOLA/ATL and back, this was one of my absolute favorites!! If you want to experience a little bit of something you're never going to get anywhere but in Scott, LA , this is it. You won't find Boudin like this in NOLA. I bought about $30 worth of boudin and the cashier , when I told her it's my first time, said to eat it outside because you'll probably want to come back and get some more. Everything here was so good. I am a particular fan of the pepperjack Boudin ball. You'd think you'd get tired of some fried meat/rice/seasonings with cheese inside, but it was cooked so well that it didn't get too heavy and I could eat like 5 of them without saying "man, that was too much" This is an absolute MUST STOP BY place. Expect a line building up as well. Scott is a place known for Boudin. read more

Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Scott, Louisiana

Drove through rain today to get to Billy's, whose hours posted on their website say that they were open till nine. I got there three minutes after seven and they were closed never again Billy's can buy my Boudin anywhere and yours isn't the best. read more

Saw a bunch of billboards on our drive on I-10 so I asked my wife to stop. She love boudin so it was an easy sell. We pull d up at 10:30 in a Sunday morning and there was a line of cars in the drive thru and when I got inside a line at the order counter. They have frozen, refrigerated, and fresh fried options. The line moved quick so don't let that deter you. We got a 6 different items from the fried options and the best was the fried boudin with pepper jack cheese. Super flavorful boudin, cheese was nicely melted and the batter was equivalent to what you get on a great piece of fried chicken. So damn good!!! Ambiance is meat market/grocery store. Clean restrooms too. Don't be a jerk and just stop to use their restrooms. Do yourself, and the owners, a favor and pick up a sampler of their goodies. read more

Great boudin! And the pepper jack wraps are too good! I am wanting 2 right now! But not too good for the old heart. Must hold out! Delayed gratification! Staff always very helpful if I gave questions ! Thank you Billy's for making great food for all of us in Acadiana! read more

Billy's Boudin has been a staple for Louisiana road trips, at least for us!! Here in Houston boudin is a thing but not as loved like it is with our Cajun neighbors. You literally have to try it for yourselves! Approximately each piece of fried boudin balls, roll ups, pistolettes, and patties are about $3+. Don't underestimate because the loadedness is so filling! Boudin, crawfish boudin and smoked boudin links are sold by the pound(3 links) only starting at $7+. For those who'd like to try it NOW, they do have options to ship it out to you!!! YES, BOUDIN SENT TO YOUR DOOR. Check their website or call for more details on that information. read more

A place you NEED to stop by (and it's only 2 minutes from I-10.) Wait lines are at least 20+ minutes from both inside and outside. They do not offer dine-in, everything is take out. They charge 4% for using credit/debit card. This review is specifically for their boudin balls. Their boudin balls are enormous! Each bite you take is never bland and has a crazy (good) amount of seasoning. It is unlike any other boudin ball I've tried, and nothing can make up for it. I prefer the pepperjack boudin balls bc they give extra texture to the boudin. Even though these are dense, you'll want to keep eating more. So whenever you're ordering, add one more to however many you were planning on ordering! read more

This place is great! Really just a stop in and pick up boudin/sausage and Cracklin shop inside a nice gas station, but no need for anything else!! The fresh hot cracklins and fried boudin balls were freaking awesome!! Service is a bit slow, so plan to be there for a bit if there's a line, but it wasn't terrible and they packed everything up nicely for us. Definitely plan to stop by if you're in the area!! read more

Had chicken cracklin's for the first time! Wow! Just yum! And of course we got the pork cracklin's sometimes this are just to hard and crunchy to eat but also Yum! read more

By far the best place to get cracklin, boudin, sausage and so much more. Thankfully the crowds have gathered yet so I was in and out pretty quick. The hardest part of Billy's is getting out with the figure 8 intersection, pay attention when you go and leave. read more

Located just west of Lafayette in Scott, LA directly off of Interstate 10, the Billy's Boudin and Cracklin is THE place to go if you are looking for the best boudin or smoked boudin on the planet. For those of you living in distant lands far far away from the Southeast U.S., cracklin is pork skin that has been deep fired and seasoned, and in my opinion, best eaten when still warm. Furthermore, boudin is in its most general terms, a spicy Cajun sausage containing rice and meat (such as pork) or seafood. This "real" cracklin bares no resemblance to what you may find in your local supermarket or vending machine. The crackling is hearty and has a little meat attached, and is seasoned to perfection. They also sell smoked boudin, boudin balls and pepper-jack boudin balls. These may be some of the best balls you've ever eaten; no pun intended. LOL! Whoever came up with the idea of a boudin ball deserves a Nobel Peace Prize, as you can hear angels singing with each and every bite. Well, maybe not, but they are phenomenal! There is a huge hot bar with items ready to eat and there are also frozen meats "to go". For your convenience, there is a drive- thru in case you already know what you want and you prefer to sit in the comfort of your own vehicle rather than waiting in line. And chances are, you will be waiting in line, as Billy's is very popular. If you find yourself on I-10 and are passing through, hop off the interstate and treat yourself to a bite. read more

Long lines inside and outside but WELL worth the wait!! Boudin balls are crunch on the outside. I think they use a batter and not a breading. read more

Loved the fried corn and the chicken cracklings everything else was average. Glad we checked it off the must stop list but it's not a place I need to stop again except for that corn. I want to deep fry corn now! Stopped in two locations. Scott location the workers were a little rude. Second location was cleaner and the workers more friendly. Can't remember I'd mask were worn. read more

Lines almost out the door y'all!!! If you have ever been to Louuuuuuuuusiannnnnna, you have to go to Billy's Boudin!!! Boudin, Boudin, and more Boudin!!! Billlllllly's is beyond popular! OMG. Parking is thick, the drive through is packed and the line is almost out the door. However the line goes fast... On a Sunday morning, we were in line 30-45 minutes or so. I expected to be in line longer. This place is like a well oiled machine. Food is being cooked in the back and brought to the front, which makes the orders go quickly. The staff is friendly and helpful. The restaurant is clean and there is 1 Mens Restroom and 1 Womens Restroom! The womens RR ran out of TP, but the staff was there in a quick hurry to replace it. The restaurant also features frozen foods (all sorts including boudin), refrigerated food (e.g. stuffed peppers, fresh meat patties for the grill, frog legs, stuffed chicken, etc.), ready made food, drinks, and convenient store items! Everything looks good and the fried everything entices you to want to buy everything, so my recommendation would be to take a look at the menu and decide before you get to the counter. Plus, people there seem to already know what they want, so why hold up the line. We got the Crawfish Boudin and the Cheese Boudin. Both were good, but the cheese was my favorite. Needless to say, I will definitely be back to Billy's, maybe a bit earlier to perhaps avoid the line. read more

Always busy but worth the wait. Boudin balls are great. The sales person that I spoke to was very helpful.

Great little store, like a small grocery store, but also selling foods 100 glass. The Boudin balls were excellent, I also got the shrimp and crawfish Boudin balls. The crawfish Boudin balls were superior by far to the shrimp, which weren't that good. The crawfish rolls were way better than the shrimp rolls which were again not very good. I also got the chicken cracklings which were seasoned great. Everything was a little bit expensive, but it was good. If you're passing through, I suggest stopping they are right off the highway. read more

OMG !! I'm so in love , an employee of mines had their mother bring her a couple of links while on her way to Dallas . It was sooooo good , that I literally found myself on their website the exact same day trying to figure out what was best and fastest method of getting some of my own immediately . I ordered a Couple of Pounds , in which i regret, because it's just not enough and I now need more . However the sales rep did tell me that I could and should order more because the shipping was going to be close to $70 and that I could order up to 12lbs of product for that shipping price . But either way I received my packed quickly (within 48 hours after ordering) with everything nice and fresh!! I will DEFINITELY be back to order more for sure .. read more

Now listen closely, if you haven't tried the PEPPER JACK BOUDIN BALL at Billy's yet, then you are missing out on fried cheesy boudin goodness! Since you're already here, grab some of the seasoned cracklins and boudin too! Wth is a cracklin you may ask? Imagine a bite-sized piece of deep fried pork belly with Cajun seasoning, packed with a big crunch and flavor. As for the boudin, the link is basically Cajun seasoned pork dirty rice stuffed into pork casing. You can choose to eat the casing or squeeze the stuffing out of the casing. Be sure to sprinkle on Tabasco or your hot sauce of choice to kick it up a notch. I've tried Billy's boudin, smoked boudin and crawfish boudin, which were all to my satisfaction. Your belly will scream out with joy and excitement!!! The rules are simple: exit 97 (LA 93) from I-10 to the roundabout and navigate carefully to the parking lot (you can't miss the pink pig sign), get in line (don't worry, it moves quickly), order away to your heart's desire, pay, and now you'll be on your merry way road tripping through Louisiana. Despite the crazy busy parking lot with pot hole obstacles and the crazy busy lines inside the store, the wait is worth it for you enjoy a little piece of fried-oh-em-gee heaven. The food is always fresh, and they run an efficient fast-paced fried food factory. At Billy's, there are no frills, no fuss, and friendly service. It's a meat market too so you can pick up specialty meat items (poultry, pork, beef, sausage) and the cold beverages and snacks are plentiful. Get ready, set, and GO GO GO to Billy's for those PEPPER JACK BOUDIN BALLS and cracklins!!! FYI: hours are 6:30am-7pm weekdays and 7am-7pm weekends, so you can get your Cajun fried goodness fix for breakfast, lunch and dinner! read more

Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - You've got to try these incredible pepper jack boudin balls! (5/5) - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Scott, Louisiana

This isn't gourmet, but what they do there is excellent. The chicken cracklings and the Boudin sausages are top notch. It was my first time to Billy's, but the food and service will bring me back next time I am in that area. Everyone had a smile and explained all the offerings. It may not be a huge menu, but it is definitely worth a stop whether you're on a road trip or visiting the area. read more

Halfway pit stop from New Orleans to Houston, grab and go a quick snack for the remaining of the trip some good ol' cracklings, boudin, or even a pistolette, love this place, e prepared to wait at least 30 minutes in line read more

Yummy Cajun food but keep in mind that it's very busy during peak times. There will be a line but they are on the ball handling it.

Everything was so fresh, crispy, and full of flavor. Customer service was great and swift! Prices were even better. You HAVE to try the chicken crackling....the chicken ones are life changing! Try to get the dat dip sauce with the chicken crackling. It's simply amazing together. Pistolettes are actually breaded and deep-fried. Smoked boudin and boudin roll ups are good as well. If you go around lunchtime, there will be a line. read more

Was in Lafayette for work and had to stop by on my way home. Ordered half a dozen of Billy's Pepper jack boudin balls + boudin pistolette. Bought some to my coworkers to try and they were a hit!

Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - Half a dozen of pepper jack boudin balls and + boudin pistolette - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Scott, Louisiana

My first time having chicken cracklins, and they were tasty but pretty greasy. The line was super long (inside and drive thru)- it took at least 30-40 minutes just to get to the counter to order. They also have cold or frozen food options to take home as well. I honestly didn't think it was worth the hype and wait, but I'm not a huge fan of greasy, fried foods either. I'm also not big on boudin, but if you like that stuff then this is a good place to go. read more

i loved coming here! i also don't mind waiting even 45 mins in drive thru line . the inside is small and i have a toddler with me...it was packed inside as well! but when they told me i can only order 1 lb of cracklins and 1 lb of chicken cracklins bc it's going to take too long to scoop premade cracklins...i was upset. the girl even left the window to find a manager and asked about me purchasing 5 lbs worth of cracklins in the drive thru. which was another 2-3 mins wasted arguing with me when she could have scooped it up and handed to me. well i decided not to give them my business. i left and went to Don's! i decided ill just take my kid inside now since there's no drive thru. they happily sold me $150 worth of food! i won't be returning here even if i can stop in again, ill take my business somewhere they will appreciate it. I buy a lot bc i live in houston now and i love their food!! they have the best tasting boudin balls and yupp cracklins. read more

Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - Pepper Jack boudin ball after reheat and airfry - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Scott, Louisiana

This place is it - hands down the best cajun fare you can get. They have it all, and then some - frozen meals to go, typical convenient store snacks, and then the holy grail hot section for all of your friend cajun delights. Top it all off with friendly staff and you have a winner. I cannot pass this place up without getting a selection of their cracklins. My newest discovery on this last trip was their chicken cracklins (shoutout to the attendant who convinced me to try them). I almost went back inside to get more they were that good - basically fried chicken skin seasoned and cut into poppable bite-sized pieces. Yes, it is horrible for you, but most good things are. Stop in and indulge in a little something bade for you and experience the joy! read more

Billy's Boudin & Cracklins - Boudin Balls - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Scott, Louisiana

Boudin & Cracklins, deep south comfort at it's best. Camping at the next door KOA, this was a great take out spot. We visited Lafayette in March but there were NO mudbugs, except to dine in, which we weren't doing with Covid. Billy's has a drive-thru, a large menu and a discount for cash. Having grown up in northwest LA and long having preached Breaux Bridges' crawfish festival to my Ohio born wife, it was a let down. We did get great crawfish, in Texas!, another review though. Billy's helped us over the no "peel, suck head, eat, sip beer, repeat" crawdad experience we missed with crawfish pie. The boudin and boudin balls were really, really good. The cracklins were hot, crisp and greasy (and the only thing remotely keto). They open at 6:30 and a line isn't unusual. Quick on/off I10 via a slightly confusing traffic circle. We didn't go inside. read more
