Recommendations

"Don't eat any of them without trying Billy's recipe first. Once you have one of his you won't want to waste the calories on any other. Here they're about double in size than the other spots thus double in price. They come with a surprise treat inside. Melted pepperjack cheese takes these to the podium."
"They take the best part of the boudin, roll it into a ball around pepper jack cheese, then deep fry it. SIGN ME UP."
"A legend in hot boudin, Billy's serves a variety of different types of boudin including crawfish and boudin balls stuffed with pepper jack cheese. Pair that boudin with a bag of cracklin and shop for sausage and other smoked meats."
"If my ravenous obsession with this place doesn't convince you how great the pepper jack-stuffed boudin balls are maybe the two-hour wait in line on the weekends will. They are the boudin balls to rule all other boudin balls, and I will fight to the death against anyone who does not agree."
"The boudin balls had the same bready softness to them, but were mushier. The meat was shredded finer, making a relatively loose mortar around the rice. The pepperjack variety had a great twinge to it, the hit from the cheese working well with the green onions in the pork and rice mixture."
"The combination of crispy fried shell, hearty meat-rice-veggie filling and oozy cheese is the epitome of Cajun cuisine rolled into a deliciously unhealthy little ball. It's the perfectly terrible-for-you, totally delicious and compact Louisiana meal. Absolutely, one hundred percent worth the detour."
"Most roadside boudin joints sell their own versions of boudin balls, and some have even tried to imitate the pepper jack-stuffed version. Often times, the other's balls are smooth, lightly breaded, fried spheres with a sort of chewy outer crust compared to the glorious, golden, crunchy, addiction-inducing orbs served at Billy's."
"What you want to do here is order up both the boudin balls, which are about as big as Eight Balls and just as heavy, and of course the ultra-gutbusting cheese- and boudin-stuffed egg rolls. They will blow your mind but hopefully not the seat of your pants."
"Billy's Boudin & Cracklin' in Scott, just off I-10, sells an amazing smoked boudin, perfectly balancing the meat and rice with just a hint of smoky flavor."
