For a product with a fair bit of rice in it this is stupid expensive in the South, and elsewhere. Walmart here in Hooterville, GA has one brand, only one, that's $9.99/lb. I bought 2.3 lbs of pork tenderloin for $8.24, just sayin'

Special Equipment:
You're going to need a grinder and either a stuffer to make links or a ham press to make a chub. Alternatively make loose patties or JAS_OH1 has a recipe here where she details making links without the stuffer and casing.

Ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 lbs. of pork shoulder/butt. I used pork tenderloin and added in 1/2 lb. bacon for the fat.
  • 1 medium onion, chopped fine.
  • 1/2 bell pepper. I used red since there's a lot of green coming up. (chopped fine).
  • 1 bunch green onions, diced.
  • 1/4 bunch parsley, finely chopped.
  • 1/4 tsp. white pepper.
  • 1/2 Tbsp. salt.
  • 1/2 Tbsp. black pepper.
  • 1 Tbsp. cayenne powder. I used 2 fresh ones finely diced.
  • 2 cups of cooked white rice.
  • 1 cup of bouillon broth. I used beef.

Method:
Everything is to be ground to your taste in coarseness and mixed together. I go with a medium grind since after it's all ground together it still goes in a mixer for emulsifying. While in the mixer is when the broth is added. After it's all ground together mix it until it's emulsifying, you'll know, it'll start getting gluey.

Pack into the ham press:

Cook in the press until the thermometer reads 180°F/85°C for pork. I go to 160°F/70°C in the press since to warm it up I'll finish cooking it. 😉

Finished chub. It's good, for the first round at least, to cut off a nice thick piece, sear it in a pan and dig in.

TastyReuben Boudain is the Texas spelling and the proper Cajun spelling is boudin. Please add boudin as a tag too. Thank you.

in SE Texas (Bridge City, Beaumont, Port Arthur) near the Louisiana border they spell it boudin. But a lot of those peeps are of Cajun descent.
 
JAS_OH1 I think you would like this recipe. You could lose a step if you bought ground pork but this would all come together in your FP I'm sure. I've been eating hot dog bun shaped rectangles on, yes, hotdog buns with a generous smear of Zatarain's Creole mustard.

Wally world had these on sale so...

Oh I have no doubt I'd love this recipe. If ground pork were on sale as cheap as I can pick up tenderloins on sale fairly often, I would use that but I don't have a problem grinding my own meat.
