Nothing can capture the feeling of nostalgia like a delicious, slow-cooked pork roast straight out of your grandparent's kitchen.
While we love a hot pork roast in the winter, this is traditional southern meal that’s served year-round. During Mardi Gras season, it's the perfect recovery food after a day at the parades!
Our recipe comes packed with a few secret ingredients….well not that secret. We want everyone to know about Cajun Blast's Garlic Butter and Creole Seasoning!

Jambalaya is the epitome of Southern home-cooking - loved by families for its delicious flavor, but also a dish that can feed a large crowd. In south Louisiana, this is a go-to for tailgates, parties, and of course Mardi Gras.
Jambalaya is a Cajun cuisine that is a blend of rice, meat, and lots of seasoning. Suitable as an everyday treat or special occasion meal, this classic dish never fails to satisfy!
Don't forget the Cast Iron Cajun's Season Ya'll all purpose Cajun seasoning - a key ingredient to the perfect jambalaya!

When Mardi Gras rolls around, the ultimate libation to go with it is none other than the iconic Sazerac.
The Sazerac, which originated in New Orleans, is the widely considered America's first cocktail. When we said iconic, we meant it!
Sirop Trading Co. has perfected the simple syrup needed for your drink. Sirop de Saizon is the connoisseur's secret ingredient, featuring an indulgent blend of molasses and nutty notes balanced with pure cane sugar for a rich sweetness that finishes off tantalizingly with vanilla bean.
Treat your tastebuds to this small-batch syrup in your Sazerac today! And if rye whiskey isn't your thing, try it any classic Ole Fashioned.
