Chef’s Tip: Dice a small amount and sauté it first with onions, celery, and bell pepper. That gives the fat, smoke, and seasoning a chance to build the base of the dish before you add stock, beans, or rice.
Chicken tasso is a smoked seasoning meat used to bring flavor to a dish rather than serve as the main protein. A little can flavor a whole pot. This chicken version gives you the smoky, seasoned character people look for in tasso while offering a lighter option than the traditional pork style.
Some shoppers want the flavor of tasso but prefer chicken over pork. Others want a smoked Cajun seasoning meat that feels a little lighter in soups, sauces, and rice dishes. Savoie’s Chicken Tasso gives you that flexibility while still fitting naturally into Louisiana cooking.

All authentic Louisiana meats and specialties from CajunFood.com are prepared according to generational bayou recipes. Here are our smokehouse pitmaster guidelines for best flavor:
Submerge links in barely simmering water (do not boil hard or casings will burst) for 10–12 minutes until heated through (internal temp 160°F).
Preheat to 375°F. Lightly brush casings with butter or oil. Cook for 10–14 minutes, turning halfway through until the skin is delightfully crispy.
Place over indirect, medium-low heat on pecan or hickory coals. Turn frequently for 8–10 minutes until casings are taut and lightly charred.
Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Transfer to a heavy Dutch oven or saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until hot and bubbling.

Living in Colorado, finding real Louisiana boudin and smoked meats is impossible. CajunFood shipped this packed hard in dry ice. Steamed it in a pot for 12 minutes and the rice/pork balance and cayenne spice level were perfection.
Was skeptical about ordering frozen food in the summer heat, but the cooler had plenty of dry ice remaining. Air fried at 375°F for 12 mins and had the crispiest, juiciest sausage links ever.
My family is from St. Martinville. This is the real deal—no fillers, authentic seasonings, and great smoke flavor. CajunFood is my go-to online store now.
