#33: Johnson’s Boucaniere in Lafayette, Louisiana

In Louisiana, a state not famed for its BBQ, Johnson’s Boucaniere stands out, delighting both locals and tourists with its unique smoked meats, including brisket, ribs, tasso, beef jerky, boudin, pork belly, and rice sausages.

Offering a variety of meats like pulled pork and country ribs, their signature ‘Brisket on a Biscuit’ is a must-try. Reopened in 2008 by popular demand, they continue to charm with original recipes and techniques from years past.
