Rougarou Mead & Meats:
Three friends. One passion. Authentic Louisiana flavor.
At Rougarou Mead & Meats, we believe the best memories are made around good food,
good company, and the traditions that bring us together.
Mission: Our mission is to bring people together through authentic Louisiana flavor, helping
families and friends turn everyday meals into lasting memories.
Our Story: Rougarou Mead & Meats was founded by three college friends who shared a
passion for great food, Louisiana traditions, and the memories created around the table.
From backyard barbecues and crawfish boils to family gatherings and holidays, some of
our best moments were spent cooking for the people we care about most.
Like many Louisiana families, food was always more than a meal. It was how we celebrated
milestones, brought generations together, shared stories, and created lasting memories.
We learned early on that great food has a way of putting smiles on faces and turning
ordinary gatherings into unforgettable experiences.
Over the years, we spent countless weekends perfecting recipes and seasoning blends for
family and friends. As more people began asking what we used and where they could buy
it, we realized we had the opportunity to share those flavors beyond our own backyard.
Today, every product we create is inspired by the people, culture, and traditions that make
Louisiana special. Our mission is simple: to help families and friends create memorable
meals, meaningful moments, and traditions of their own, one meal at a time.

Why the Rougarou?
The Rougarou is one of Louisiana's most enduring legends, passed down through
generations in the swamps, bayous, hunting camps, and family gatherings that define life in South Louisiana. More than a folklore creature, the Rougarou represents the spirit, culture, and traditions that make our home unique.
When we founded Rougarou Mead & Meats, we wanted a symbol that reflected where we
come from and the values we hold dear. The Rougarou embodies the mystery of the bayou, the resilience of its people, and the stories shared around campfires, crawfish boils, and family tables for generations.
Our Rougarou isn't here to scare anyone. Around here, he's the keeper of the fire, the
master of the smoker, and the unofficial host of every backyard cookout. He represents
friendship, hospitality, hard work, and the belief that great food brings people together.
Every product we create is inspired by the flavors, traditions, and spirit of South Louisiana.
The Rougarou serves as a reminder of our roots and our mission to help families and
friends create lasting memories around good food and good company.
