Meats & Seafood

Turducken Breast - Many find a turducken too large for small families, here's your answer. Joey's Signature Cajun Stuffed Turducken Breast. This creation features the breast meat of the turkey, duck and chicken with our Cajun stuffing between each layer of meat. Our Cajun stuffing consists of the "trinity of vegetables", onions, bell pepper and celery combined with garlic, spices and herbs.

Turkey Roll - A whole turkey is skillfully deboned, seasoned and stuffed with onions, bell pepper, celery and garlic. Then it is netted together to make an oven ready entree and easy meal solution for the holidays or any large gathering.

Stuffed Chickens - A whole chicken is deboned, except for the wings, then seasoned and stuffed. Then it is netted together to make a roast type oven ready entree. Available with seafood jamabalaya, crawfish etouffee, pork sausage or cornbread stuffing.

Stuffed Chicken Breasts - A boneless chicken breast is wrapped around one of Joey’s delicious stuffings. Available with spinach Madeline, seafood stuffing or portabella mushroom & provolone cheese.

Stuffed Pork Chops - With the bone in, the pork loin is cut into thick chops. Then a pocket is cut into the chop and stuffed. Available with sausage stuffing, apple stuffing or cornbread stuffing.

Stuffed Pork Roast - Two trimmed center cut pork loins are netted together to make a large roast ready for your oven! Stuffed with the "trinity of vegetables", onions, bell pepper and celery, along with garlic and cayenne.

Smoked Beef & Pork Sausage - This sausage is used in many Cajun dishes like gumbos and jambalaya. Great in Chicken & Sausage Gumbo.

Andouille Sausage - Authentic Cajun smoked sausage. This spicy smoked sausage made with coarsely chopped pork has a garlic and spice flavor. It is used in dishes such as gumbos, jambalaya or grilled for an appetizer. It can also be used to season beans, vegetables or sauces.

Tasso - This is a heavily smoked spicy pork steak, seasoned with cayenne, garlic and salt. It is excellent for adding flavor to any dish or sauce and is especially good for seasoning vegetables or beans. Thinly sliced, it can be used as an appetizer or snack.

Boudin - Visitors to Acadiana have heard about and are eager to try boudin. (boo-dan, silent n). We offer a pork boudin and a seafood boudin. It is a wonderful snack any time of day. Many Cajun's love boudin for breakfast.

Crawfish Tails - A true Louisiana delicacy. It usually takes 7 lbs of live crawfish to yield 1 lb. of tail meat, which has been blanched and boiled 7-8 minutes. 1 lb. of tail meat should yield 4 servings of etouffee.

Turtle Meat - Turtle meat has the texture of frog legs or lobster. It is said that its white and dark meat offers seven different flavors which may be one reason that turtle soup and turtle sauce piquant are so special.

Alligator Meat - Alligator produces a delicious flavor by slow-cooking it in a sauce piquant (a peppery red sauce). Many local restaurants often feature fried alligator bites as an appetizer. Often eaten just for the experience, the taste is a delightful surprise.

Frog Legs - With a gig and a spotlight, frogs were harvested from the shallow waters all over South Louisiana. The legs, more tender than chicken, were fried or cooked into a sauce piquant. Today they are farm-raised but still just as tender.

Crab - Louisiana Blue Point Crab Meat - Jumbo Lump, White, Claw and Claw Fingers.

Shrimp - Peeled & deveined Gulf white shrimp. Great for frying or for pasta dishes.

Bowfin Caviar - A Louisiana product, Bowfin caviar has a clean, shiny texture with a natural black coloring. Shipped Fresh.

Prepared Gumbos & Bisques

Crab & Corn Bisque - Flavors that were made for each other! There is no question when it comes to flavor and the way seafood, cream, corn, potatoes and home made stock come together. Serve with hot crusty French bread.

Shrimp & Corn Bisque - A bowl of shrimp and corn bisque with a cream base, hot crusty French bread and a tossed salad is all you need for one great meal. However, you just might want another bowl.

Crawfish & Corn Bisque - Many new crawfish dishes have evolved from the melding of other cooking methods and this is one of the best. There is no question when it comes to flavor and the way seafood, cream, corn, potatoes and home made stock come together.

Seafood Gumbo - A family favorite is gumbo usually made with crab meat, shrimp, and oysters, served over rice. Often a cup of gumbo is served as a first course.

Shrimp & Okra Gumbo - Rich with the taste of the "trinity of vegetables" smothered with cut okra, a little brown roux and shrimp, this gumbo will make you an okra lover!


Prepared Entrees

Crawfish Pies - Two of these delicious crescent pies will make an entree, but one is great for a snack.
