You people are way more creative than we are. In America, when we bake a potato, we just call it......a baked potato.
That’s what we’re having tonight, and in recognition of the oft-mentioned “special relationship” between us and our British friends, I’ll call them “baked jacket potatoes.”
 
Boudin balls aren't scary really, the ones I had weren't too spicy. I am not a fan of liver so that's my only objection to them. Since they have so many other flavors in them it balances it out a bit but it's still detectable. Not my favorite but not bad.
Boudin was traditionally made with pork liver. Craig made a traditional recipe. I refused to eat any more than 1 bite, and honestly spat the 1 bite out.

The balls are rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried. I will eat just about anything if it's deep fried, LOL! Huge weakness of mine, though I stay away from it for the most part. And there are better things to eat that are fried. I suppose my favorite thing is Southern fried chicken. I only eat it once a month or less, though.

BBQ/Grilled B/S Chicken Thigh with a lovely rub from my friends at Miners Mix, Maynard's Memphis BBQ Rub, just fabulous!
My homemade Coleslaw and AF French Fries/Chips.
I had made my Copycat Zippy's Restaurant Macaroni Salad, one of my all time favorites, as most of the folks in Hawaii will tell you, it's just the best Mac Salad, but DH isn't a fan, so I made Fries instead.
 
We lost power at 4PM, so we went out to eat, just to a local Mexican place.

The food is fine, but I really like the people who own and staff it, very large extended family from Mexico, and they’re opening a second restaurant (and I think they own a third one in the next town over), always very friendly.

No pics, but I had a giant burrito filled with shredded beef, refried beans, and rice, and covered in a red sauce and a cheese sauce. MrsT had some kind of chimichanga thingamajig. She had some weirdo margarita (tequila, amaretto, and Grand Marnier I think), and I just had a beer.
