Pork Butt Cabaret: Cajun Pork Tasting Menu & Live Music

1 hour 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

Throughout the evening, your host serves up the stories behind the food: Cajun boucheries, cochon de lait parties, the history of cracklin’, Louisiana sugar cane, and the generations of cooks who figured out that almost every part of a pig could become something delicious.

But this isn't a cooking class, and it isn't just dinner.

It's Pork Butt Cabaret.

A slightly outrageous, thoroughly New Orleans supper club filled with Louisiana food, live local music, storytelling, and good company—where the portions are generous, the music is lively, the stories get better as the evening goes on, and the pig is always the star of the show.

Example Menu

Starter

Louisiana Pork Cracklin’

Crispy, salty, and unmistakably Louisiana, your pork cracklin’ starts the evening with one of Cajun country’s most beloved treats.

Starter

Alligator & Pork Sausage

Smoky Louisiana sausage bringing together alligator and pork, seasoned with plenty of spice and served as its own taste of the bayou.

Main

Cochon de Lait & Cheese Grits

Tender, slow-roasted pork inspired by Louisiana’s traditional whole-hog cochon de lait celebrations, served over rich, creamy cheese grits.

Main

Pork Ribs & Maque Choux

Brined, roasted and then grilled pork ribs paired with maque choux, Louisiana’s beloved corn dish with deep Creole and Native American roots.

Dessert

Steen’s Bacon & Creole Cream Cheese

For dessert, sweet meets salty: smoky bacon glazed with Louisiana cane syrup and served with tangy Creole cream cheese—a decidedly Louisiana finish.

What to expect

Come hungry, settle in, and get ready for a Louisiana feast with a little rhythm and a lot of personality.

Pork Butt Cabaret is an intimate New Orleans tour and food tasting experience celebrating the glorious marriage of pork, smoke, spice, music, and Louisiana excess. Part dinner party, part culinary storytelling, and part live music cabaret, the evening unfolds course by course with plenty of local flavor, laughter, and a little mischief along the way.

Gather around the table as we explore Louisiana’s obsession with the pig—from roadside cracklin’ and Cajun sausage to slow-roasted cochon de lait and sticky ribs. Each course tells a piece of the story of South Louisiana cooking, where Cajun country traditions, Creole kitchens, backyard cookouts, and old-fashioned ingenuity all meet on the plate.

And because no Louisiana gathering is complete without music, the evening features live local musicians, bringing the sounds of New Orleans and South Louisiana right into the supper club. Between courses, the music, stories, and food come together to create the feeling of being invited to a very special—and a little bit country—Louisiana dinner party.
