Tomorrow special is not so much a meal, but a classic condiment that is so often overlooked here in Texas. The condiment is homemade New Orleans style tartar sauce.
Join me at the VFW hall- post 1480- 220 Thompson Drive Tuesday 6-23
And Thursday 6-25 at Gibson’s discount center
My tartar sauce starts with homemade spiced pickles, fresh onion, a little bit of lemon juice, and lots of blue plate mayonnaise. The simple but yet delicious mixture will add so much flavor and additional spice to The Cajun Cowboy famous fried catfish, shrimp, or alligator bites.

Tomorrow 6-18-26, starting at 11-3 We will be serving at Gibsons Discount Center
In addition to our delicious Cajun weekly standards, we will serve smoked Cajun chicken leg quarter meals. Cajun BBQ you say; THIS is Texas Cajun boy, you’re in the wrong State
Intelligent and Cajun are not necessarily “Synonyms” words, but this Cajun is intelligent enough not to try and compare Texas BBQ to Cajun BBQ; Cajun BBQ simply is a completely different flavor profile. The Cajun Cowboy uses his unique spice blend that he has developed over years of trial and error; this unique blend is made up from, paprika, sea salt, garlic power, black pepper, oregano, and thyme. The combination of flavors is bold, a little bit spicy that will leave your taste buds anticipating each and every bite.
