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.

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! :) read more

Ronnie's Boudin & Cracklin - Boudin Balls to go! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Hammond, Louisiana

The best chicken crackling around town! My nieces and nephew said it taste better than Chick-fil-A and Popeyes! LOL

The guy in the back, was extremely rude cussing at the customers this morning. Telling them to f***ing hurry up and saying you f***ing been in line. You should f***ing know what you want. Calling us customers s***heads. read more

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

Great Louisiana food, Love the plate lunches. You can not go wrong with Chicken cracklings.

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. read more

Ronnie's Boudin & Cracklin - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Hammond, Louisiana

Good boudin, I stopped in twice, once the place was packed and you could tell they were stressed, the second time I was the only person there, the ladies were the same both times, just as helpful and cheerful as one could ask. I'll stop by again the next time I pass that way. The boudin is good. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Really good food nice customer service really good pricing definitely recommend it will definitely buy again

The pork cracklings are very disappointing. They're supposed to be crunchy pieces of fried pig skin with fat. The ones I bought were literally cut up butt roast over cooked and $26 a lb!! Why sell something that is a dupe? Especially for that price? read more

Ronnnnnieee! Every time I hear the name Ronnie or Rhonda, I picture someone from Da Parish yelling that name in their yat drawl. Is that fair? Nope. Does that have anything to do with this place? Not really. Is it what I think every time I have been here? Yep. My first experience here was during a particular trying time at work. It seemed like the world had gone crazy and they were feeding us sandwich after sandwich while we were sequestered at work. A buddy and I got a free moment and needed to go check on his house. He suggested we stop here and I'm glad we did. Ronnie's is typical of many south Louisiana meat markets. There is a refrigerated and frozen section where you can pick up boudin to go. There is also a hot counter and some tables for dine in. Before I go any further I have to let you know something important. For a long time I thought boudin balls were bullshit. Boudin? Awesome. Smoked boudin? Awesomer. Boudin balls? Bullshit. Chicken cracklin is also bullshit, but we can save that for another time. So despite me going on that exact rant to my buddy, he insisted on ordering boudin balls and had me try one. Holy hell man! The boudin balls here are absolutely legit. I cannot believe I am saying this, but they were actually good. Get you some. In addition to the boudin balls, we each had a steak poboy. Not the best I've ever had, but pretty darn good. It was better than any philly sandwich you could get anywhere. Oh yeah, those are usually bullshit too. If you're headed through Hammond and need an actually good boudin ball, give Ronnie's a try. read more

over priced. spent 60$ on food for 2 people. not worth the money in the slightest. burnt cracklins and dried out brisket. I'll stick with my go to spot. i can get sweet baby rays at Walmart read more

The best pulled pork poboy ever! The service was just as good. Make sure to get it dressed like they recommend. Be advised that you will need extra napkins.! read more

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. read more

Small place of the highway. It is but a truck fuel station. Nice folks inside. Great cracklin. Food was good. Had a shrimp pot boy. Bought some supplies here also. Service was good. It needs several things, a restaurant upgrade, a good scrub down, deep cleaning in restrooms. I will go back but these things can ruin a good place. read more

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. read more

I have been wanting to try this place for so long but just never stopped. Mainly because I am usually towing the boat behind me. My wife surprised me by stopping on her way home from work and picked me up some boudin links and some boudin balls. I must say that the boudin links were outstanding. If you are from Louisiana, you know that boudin must be on point and this was. The boudin balls were good but not the best that I ever had. read more

I travel all through Louisiana and this place is the best! Try the chicken Cracklins.

Love the wide variety of sausages (but be sure to go early or else they may be sold out of the one you are longing to taste!) Several times a year, I buy and pack up a whole cooler full of their goodies and ship it out of state as a present. The Recipient is always tickled to received more of their tasty products for a taste of Louisiana goodness. From Deer Meat to Deer+Jalapeño Sausage, to Boudin, Andouille, Ronnie's quality is consistent, and the cost is reasonable, so I highly recommend stopping by and grabbing at least one pack to give them a try! read more

Fresh hot cracklings. Friendly staff. Variety of condiments, seasonings and sauces and speciality meats. Pork and chicken cracklings seasoned well with salt based spices. Smoked boudin heated while you wait and very flavourful. Well worth the detoured stop. read more

Amazing Place! Great food! Ate 3 times in one week! Daily special amazing!! People who live near by and work in the area told me that I had to try. Well worth driving out of the way to stop in for a meal or just some to snack food (Cracklin and pepper jack stuffed Boudin balls) read more

Stopped in here to get some hot cracklin's and some boudin! I got some boudin balls from the cooler, and managed to find tiger sausage! Rowr! This place has quite the variety of different styles of boudin- including smoked boudin which was amazing! The cracklin's were spiced perfectly, and the sausage was all terrific! The shop also offers poboys and other food, but I was just looking for stuff to go, and found the jackpot! They have such a great variety of things ready shrink wrapped or packaged for your cooler. Everything I got there was simply fantastic. I love cajun food, and this place does it right! Amazing boudin! They also had boudin balls, which are great if you deep fry or air fry. The place was clean, and the clerk was nice. She answered all my questions about tiger sausage and boudin in general. There wasn't much of a line, and I was able to get in and out of there quickly. Parking was easy, as it shares a lot with the Chevron. read more

Amazing food and great service. I highly recommend the smoked boudin but I've never had anything bad from there.

Loved the food. They had great customer service. The building was older but looked ok.

You've seriously got to try the incredi-mazing, award-winning, smoked boudin & cracklins! Be sure to go early to get them while they're fresh and hot! I am not surprised that they sell out of their popular items well before noon. We came in around 9am (they're open 7am M-Sat) and were given the best and friendliest customer service. We even got to sample their award winning smoked boudin and regular boudin! A place that stands behind the great taste of their product is an A+++ in my book! They have a refrigerated section offering various meats like deer sausage, stuffed chicken, hog head cheese, beef jerky, and different varieties of sausage. Daily lunch specials and po-boys are available for to-go or dine-in. The store is spacious and clean, and the aroma of cracklins entices you to stay longer! We are so happy we stopped by this morning. Definitely give this place a try if you're in the Hammond area.You'll love Ronnie's as much as we do! read more

I won't say Ronnies has ever been my favorite place to get my boudin snd sausages, but it is convenient when I come home to visit and it has been ok thus far. My stop over the holidays was very disappointing. The smoked boudin was tasteless and the meat inside was not ground very well and was in huge chewy pieces. On another note though, I did get some great fresh cracklins. read more

When I lived in Baton Rouge Ronnie's was a staple. This is obviously not the Baton Rouge location, but Ronnie's is synonymous with quality. Fantastic boudin, amazing cracklins (and no, Pork Rinds are NOT cracklin's, not even close. Cracklins don't come in a cellophane bag even when advertised as cracklins). And the miniature crawfish pies! 3 for $2.99. Amazing little morsels of flavor. We brought some of the crawfish boudin back to Milwaukee to cook up and feast upon. Service is super friendly. It feels family run and like you're part of that family. This is one of the things I miss about living in the South. read more

Finally!! The geniuses at Ronnie's have created Keto-friendly boudin made with cauliflower rice rather than the traditional white rice. Since I was passing by I grabbed some of the plain Keto boudin as well as the smoked. To top it off, I got a pound of cracklins, meat sticks and pork tasso. All of my Keto snacks and proteins with veggies in one place? I baked the plain Keto boudin 20 min on each side. The skin was crispy brown and the texture is firm, juicy and really flavorful. Thank you Ronnie's for the perfect food with your usual gourmet touch. read more

I passed by here on a road trip with my parents as I'm moving from Philadelphia back to Texas. We were looking for some local flavor that was quick and right off the highway and I found this place on Yelp. Let me tell you, Ronnie's did not disappoint! Each of us got a Ronnie's Special Poboy and we got a bag of cracklins to share. Each of us have pretty different tastes - my dad prefers lots of meat, my mom pays attention to flavor details, and I'm a bottomless pit who eats anything. The Ronnie's Special and cracklins made all of our bellies happy. Best meal we've had this whole road trip! The employees were very friendly and the food came out fresh and fast! We got our orders to go but there was plenty of seating inside. My mom also bought a cookbook and I can't wait to try what she makes! read more
