    Boudin Balls to go!
    Tiffany V.

    We were starting our drive back to Michigan and quickly looked up where to get boudin & cracklin' to bring home with us. We were happy to see Ronnie's popped up and had great reviews. We tried Boudin Balls that were stuffed (with cheese) and the regular. They were both outstanding but I'd say maybe the ones without cheese were better. It's hard to say because they were both very good. The smoked boudin was better in my opinion only because the casing dries out a bit it makes it crispy so we of course just ate it whole. The regular boudin has a casing that isn't crispy so we chose to just eat the filling. The inside was just as good as the smoked. We only tried the chicken cracklin's and holy cow were they good! Some pieces were real crispy while others were a bit bigger and still had some meat on them. There was a perfect mix up large and small pieces, crispy and not crispy pieces. I wish we had these in Michigan. We brought home some andouille so we could make jambalaya and gumbo. We just cooked some andouille, and it was a little bit spicy and so good. We also brought home some boudin and can't wait to cook that. Be sure to check out their freezer section and take home some different things. This place was such a gem to find! The staff was very friendly and helped us make decisions on exactly what we needed to try since we had never been before. There is seating inside if you're looking to eat there. We just ordered things we could eat on our road trip home as well as things to cook/eat later. I'm only complaint was that the bathroom was not very clean and the toilet didn't flush. That doesn't matter much because you should really be going here for the food! :)

    We went on a Thursday and my wife got the special. She said the chicken was dry but the sides were amazing. I got the Boudin Balls with pepper jack cheese. They were great. 10/10 We split an order of mini crawfish pies 8/10. The crawfish eggroll was ok. 7/10 but wouldn't get again. My daughter got the pulled pork poboy and it was 9/10. She enjoyed it.

    I'm just done with Ronnie's. I've been going here for many many years, and I've watched their food quality and service decline while their prices skyrocket. Their cracklins used to be the best around. 5 years ago, they were $13.99/lb for fresh, hot, delicious pieces of pork belly. Now you pay an astronomical $23.99/lb for sawdust, gravel, and a few pork skins that have been sitting under the heat lamp for days. I know this because I gave them one last chance & went early early in the morning to get the freshest possible & they were garbage. They don't even put bacon strips on their bacon egg cheese breakfast sandwich anymore. It's just a little pile of bacon crumbs right in the middle of the bread. The people who work there act like they hate the customers & make you feel like you're bothering them by placing your order. They're not knowledgeable about the menu. Just all around terrible service.

    A carnivore's delight! I drive from the New Orleans airport for this treat. Ordered boudin balls, smoked boudin, crawfish egg rolls, and both types of cracklings. The chicken was a new one for me, and I have to admit, was the best of the offerings. They have room to sit, a full service meat market, and friendly staff. Right off the highway, I recommend stopping in for a quick bite of quality Cajun fixings.

    Stopped by here for some Cajun food on my road trip. We got the smoked boudins, chicken cracklin, pork cracklin, boudin egg rolls, boudin balls, and crawfish egg roll. My favorite is the chicken cracklin. First time trying boudin and it was delicious. They did a great job with the seasoning. I also like the gooey texture of the boudin, really helped coat the tongue with all the flavor. With the boudin balls and egg rolls, I enjoyed the different textures, crispy outside and gooey inside. The staff were friendly and courteous. Definitely recommend this place.

    Driving through Hammond and was in the mood for some Boudin. Its had to find good boudin in New Orleans so i Googled it and Ronnie's Boudin & Cracklings poped up. When you walk in tge smell of smoked meats hits you in the face. Its gets your appetite ready for what's up ahead. I ordered 9 stuffed boudin balls stuffed w pepper jack cheese & some of their delicious crack Mac and cheese which was all hot and delicious. They also have a yummy selection of poboys but ill have to attempt that on another trip. The customer service was very friendly and informative too. I recommend if ever in the Hammond area.

    I took one bite of that "boudin" and threw that in the long grass. The boudin balls are just little mush balls. That ain't Cajun bruh.

    Smoked boudin is the best I've had anywhere. So good. Chicken cracklings are meaty and well flavored. Excellent stuff.

    Had the Porcupine Potatoes Appetizer, wasn't very impressed. It was basically fried mashed potatoes…read morewith little flavor. It came with a Peter jelly that was tasty and helped, but it was very thin. Service was quite slow. There were a handful of other 2 person parties inside. A couple already had food, so I'm unsure why it took the period of time it did to get served. However, when my Dish arrived, it was delicious. I ordered the Chicken Angelique, with the sauce on the side. The sauce was a high end sausage & white gravy type sauce. Paired with the DELICIOUS Grit Cake, the Chicken and the fried Sweet Potato Hash it was very good! I was not a fan of the Spinach flavors this dish. I normally love Spinach, but this was not a fav for me, so I removed it from my dish. But the dish I'm general was delicious. The husband had the Chicken Maurepas. He said it was "Okay. Nothing to brag about." I tried it and wasn't a fan. Our Server was nice, ( but again, service was slow), the location had a nice atmosphere and was pleasant.

It's a hefty portion and the dressing is so good. I always get the crab cakes entree and it's fantastic. They always have plenty of crab in them and aren't too bready. The shrimp remoulade appetizer is also fantastic and we love their fish entrees.
