John Madden's Favorite Turducken
While NOLA natives have long known about the wonder that is the Turducken, this food masterpiece didn't enter the world for most Americans until they heard NFL legend John Madden pouring out his heart on national TV. Created by owner Glenn Mistich and famously presented to broadcaster John Madden before the Rams-Saints game on Dec. 1, 1996. Madden fell in love, praising it repeatedly during the broadcast and taking the leftovers home with him. That love was entirely directed at the Gourmet Butcher Block, who since 1994 have been keeping Madden's table (and his belly) filled with the bird, inside a bird, inside a bird that makes any holiday celebration complete. While the Turducken garners most of the attention, those in the know also count on Gourmet Butcher Block's other cajun specialties like their gumbo, shrimp stuffed chicken and bread pudding.
