Taste The Brisket And Pork Belly Burnt Ends That Draw Lines Outside This Luling, Louisiana Smokehouse

Some barbecue joints hope for a crowd. This one in Luling, Louisiana, gets a line before the doors even unlock. The smokehouse sells its full barbecue spread only a few hours a week, and people still show up from Texas, Seattle, and the Chicago area to wait their turn. The two names on everyone’s lips are prime brisket and pork belly burnt ends, and both have a habit of selling out before closing time.

This Louisiana Italian Restaurant Makes Its Pasta, Pizza Dough And Ice Cream From Scratch

A blue crab pasta in Louisiana comes with a twist, and I can’t stop thinking about it. The noodles are made in-house, and so are the pizza dough and the ice cream. That’s a lot of from-scratch work for one kitchen. I like how the menu blends Italian ideas with a Gulf Coast attitude.
