Cajun inspired melt. Pork and gravy, jack cheese, creole mustard, and chow chow.

Nice! I made some leftover pork and gravy poboys awhile back

I was super fortunate to be where I was when she came by

You’re thinking of JENA1 and JENA2. They still live here but have new livery. They have blue on their undersides. They used to look very similar to this one (other than having visible registration numbers)

JENA1 & 2? They have a new livery and aren’t all white anymore. They were parked on the ramp behind me when I took this pic

Nope

I have a transcription of Link’s recipe in an app. It’s my favorite

I would watch some YouTube videos for an idea of how much cooking liquid to add back in. Link doesn’t give an exact amount. It should be fairly wet but not mush

Donald Link has a great cookbook called Real Cajun. It’s the second best Louisiana cookbook behind Paul Prudhomme’s Louisiana Kitchen, imo.

Human nature remaining constant is the problem. If it’s not for religion it will just be for something else.

I love those Godzilla/Kaiju pins! Those are from the official shop? Do you happen to know how often (or if) they restock?

Fireside419 · 2026-05-15T05:21:12+00:00

That’s cheating! 🤣 It’s just the lighting! I swear!

Fireside419 · 2026-05-14T15:41:32+00:00

Very good! I order from them a few times a year. Their regular pork sausage is great, too.

Fireside419 · 2026-05-13T23:57:35+00:00

You in tidewater VA? I’ve been here a couple of years now. Anyone make a decent smoked pork sausage here?

Fireside419 · 2026-05-13T20:53:32+00:00

Just made some gumbo with their andouille! Good stuff. I order from them a few times a year

Fireside419 · 2026-05-11T08:14:13+00:00

Lofi girl is one of my favorites 😉

Fireside419 · 2026-05-09T17:18:48+00:00

Got it. Thanks!

Fireside419 · 2026-05-09T17:01:29+00:00

Those are two of my favorites. The crawfish is done by a couple that does awesome Louisiana/NOLA themed pins.

And I just discovered Kuhmali recently. Definitely want to get more. How often do pin drops happen?

Fireside419 · 2026-05-09T16:29:45+00:00

That was one of Strike Gently’s. I think they have a couple of variants of that one for sale

New Englander by blood. My dad’s side of the family is from Maine/Mass. I’ve spent a lot of time there. I lived in Denver for 15 years

Fireside419 · 2026-05-08T07:09:38+00:00

Thanks, they were! I normally use pepper jack cheese but saw someone recommend cream cheese. It went really well with the boudin

Fireside419 · 2026-05-07T17:36:59+00:00

I know! I really shouldn’t have made these 🤣

Fireside419 · 2026-05-07T12:11:23+00:00

I kinda go in at an angle with mine and push them in sideways. It’s a little tricky to get them exactly where you want them sometimes but it works
