    Default Mardi Gras food?

    This Saturday, we're having our monthly dinner & game night. I'm going with a Mardi Gras theme, this month. I am working on the menu, now. So far it looks like this:

    Appetizers
    I think someone is bringing a bacon coated cheeseball
    fried crawfish tails

    Mains
    chicken & andouille jambalaya
    shrimp po' boys

    Sides
    hushpuppies
    black-eyed peas w/bacon
    dirty rice

    my first attempt at a King Cake for dessert

    Drinks including, but not limited to, hurricanes and Abita beer selection! Thought about mixing up some Sazeracs, but didn't know if it would be worth it with the lack of people interested in drinking them.

    This is all subject to change. I'm expecting a total of about 12 adults, this month.

    There will be pics and more about it on my blog.... (shameless plug, but I don't have any ads on my blog, so no gain for me)

    Doubt you can find it but when I was down there in November I couldn't get enough of cajun bloody marys and gator bites.

    I actually think there is a store in town that has alligator in the freezer section. If not, I do know a local restaurant that has gator bites. Thought about calling them to wheel and deal. LOL

    Grilled gator bites maybe with a dusting of any rub you like, served with a mayo/kethcup/mustard style sauce.

    All this talk of gator bites makes me think we'll have to do a wild game night sometime. Squirrel, frog legs, maybe some raccoon .

    People cry about how bad tobacco is, but do they realize how bad water is? Water can be chemically synthesized by burning rocket fuel. Water is the primary ingredient in herbicides and pesticides. Water is the leading cause of drowning. 100% of serial killers, rapists, and drug dealers have admitted to drinking water. And probably most alarming...100% of people exposed to water will die! By comparison tobacco is a pussy.

    Had cajun last night. Fried gator bites, home made boudin link, BBQ black peppercorn shrimp and a couple of Abita pecan harvest ales. Great stuff.
