SUMMARY:Le Grande Boucherie de Mallet
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the traditional music and food of Louisiana on May 2nd  in the small community of Mallet, located just outside of Opelousas ( https://cajuntravel.com/destinations/opelousas/ ).\nA boucherie is a community coming together to harvest an animal. Due to the intensive labor involved in whole animal butchering, a farmer would call upon friends, family, and neighbors to assist in the task. This day of work turns into a celebration, with plenty of food, music, and spirits to go around. No one went home hungry or empty-handed. With the lack of refrigeration, this was the only time that fresh meat could be consumed. Most of the meat butchered at a boucherie was processed with the intent of preservation, with the understanding that not a single aspect of the sacrificed beast would be wasted.\nAt Le Grande Boucherie De Mallet experience this traditional event and eat pork stew, cracklins, and BBQ from a freshly harvested and prepared pig. DJ stars at 11am, then, at 2pm dance to zydeco musician Rusty Metoyer & the Zydeco Krush.\nIt’s a day of live music, food, drinks, family fun, and games.\n
