WTAMU
Buffs on the Bayou Garden Gala
Canyon, Texas
Saturday, July 24, 2010
This is my first trip back to Canyon Texas since I catered the inauguration of my GREAT friend Pat O'Brien in 2006. The day before the Buffs on the Bayou Garden Gala, I lectured at a Continuing Education class on the history and founding of New Orleans all the while, cooking some Cajun Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya. In the class I also had the class taste the differences in Tasso and a selection of Andouille sausages. (Sorry, no Pics)
The "Buffs on the Bayou" is a fund raiser for the WT Athletics Department. We were going to serve everyone off the back yard patio of the President's home, BUT..... it started to rain, so we moved everything into the garage. That was a feat!
Our Menu:
Cochon de Lait with Smoked Hind Quarters, Buns and Condiments
Smoke/Roasted Chaudin and Alligator Sausage
Party Link Boudin
Cajun Shrimp and Creamy Grits
Cajun Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya
Turkey and Andouille Gumbo with Rice
Mirliton Dressing with Shrimp and Tasso
Fried Soft Shelled Crabs, Oysters and Crawfish
Red Beans with Smoked Sausage and Tasso
Crawfish Etouffee
Country Corn Macque Choux
Bread Pudding with New Orleans Rum Sauce
As soon as we started to serve the food, the rain stopped! So everyone were able to eat outside and enjoy the cooler back yard patio.
Tomorrow, Sunday Brunch!
