Louisiana Burgers

These Louisiana burgers are absolutely incredible. They are the best burgers I’ve ever had. Wonderful grilled seasoned beef, kick’n pepper jack cheese, a creamy remoulade, crunchy red onion and my favorite, spicy homemade Tasso that just melts in your mouth. All on homemade buns. Without the tasso these are great burgers. With it, they are amazing.

Every bite of these Louisiana burgers is fully of fantastic flavor. If you don’t want to go through the ‘trouble’ of making tasso, I strongly encourage you to find some. Even if you have to drive to Louisiana. It’s special. The flavors are very concentrated so you won’t need much. It’s salty, spicy and lightly smoky. Perfect on a grilled burger.

I could’ve used some Kaw-Cajun Comeback sauce on these burgers, but I went with a bottle of Louisiana Fish Fry Product’s remoulade sauce instead. It has a nice zesty taste that is also great on po boy sandwiches. You can find it in your grocer’s southern foods section.

If you love big flavors, you’ll love these burgers. Also try my spicy bacon burgers.

Louisiana Red Bean Dip

This party-time dip is a take on the classic Louisiana dish, red beans and rice. It’s almost Mexican-ish, with green chiles, chili powder and cumin. The texture of the red beans reminds you of, well, re-fried beans. Topped with spicy sausage crumbles, this Louisiana red bean dip is perfect for any get-together.

Spice It Up A Bit

I like to serve Louisiana red been dip drizzled with hot sauce. But, if you’re serving for a crowd you might want to skip that step. Or make two batches of dip. One for your friends that like a little kick and one for those that don’t.

Also try my pimento olive dip.
