The
South East Food Bank got a boost from a benefit golf tournament at Bayou Din
that attracted hundreds of supporters to help feed the area’s hungry.
People
at the course did not go hungry, because several groups showed up with their
best offerings to refresh the golfers. I met some wonderful people and got some
great culinary tips to share:
Market
Basket Smokehouse
Chuck
Barbee of Market Basket said Mid-County residents are enjoying the new
smokehouses in their stores.
“They
love it. They really do,” he said.
Shoppers
across the border in Louisiana have smoked boudain kitchens and Barbee said
shoppers line up to buy it in Lake Charles. The spicy links fared well in a
little competition they call Boudin Wars in Sulphur, La., he said.
Look
for Market Basket web site opportunities for shoppers to share their recipes.
Olive this dip
Shirley
Corbin from the Food Bank told me of a twist her husband loves in boudain dip.
In addition to smoked or original boudain and sour cream, he loves chopped
olives mixed in. I recall this Nederland family likes them ripe, but I’d try
green or black, because she made it sound so good. Fritos, crackers or whatever
you like will carry a scoop of this blend to your taste buds.
Sliders
The
Brock team was proud of their barbecue sliders, and they had a right to be. I
was proud I didn’t eat more of them then I should have.
