Well, it took me a while to stop in and check out Veron's Meat Market after winning the GC a couple of months ago. Actually, it's my own fault because from WLHP, I just don't go that direction on 1960 too often, and when I do, it's has been after they have closed.Well, to be perfectly honest, until I won the GC, I had no idea the place even existed, so I ventured over yesterday to check them out, cash in the GC and maybe buy a few other things for the upcoming holiday grill fest.  I have to say, I was not excited about walking into a meat market (the food kind, that is) thinking it would have the typical meat market smell.  Anyway, I walked in and was overcome by the amazing smell of walking into someone's kitchen that has been cooking all kinds of fabulous Louisiana dishes.  The first thing I notice is a cooler that is full of fully cooked ready to eat take away items - all things Cajun like gumbo, etouffee , etc.  Then I make my way over to another wall of coolers/freezers with a mind-blowing variety of more all things Cajun favorites, both frozen and ready to grill. I finally make my way over to the service counter where I meet Ronnie Veron, the owner.  I tell him who I am and that the KDC GC brought me in.  I thought for sure he would have said, "sorry Peaches, we don't remember, it's been too long" but they did remember.  We had a very nice long conversation about our area, ADC, KDC, his business, his products that he brings back from Louisiana, etc.  Anyway, I went back through the cases and coolers and decided to try a variety of his specialty items like crawfish stuff jalapenos, stuffed pork chips, beef and chicken skewers, and I also found my favorite dirty rice mix that I special order from a mom and pop place in Louisiana.  By coincidence, he also buys from the same place and has a small case of the dirty rice and jambalaya mixes on his shelf of Louisiana specialty products.  If you have some time and find yourself looking for a great locally owned business to support, I would definitely recommend going to visit with Ronnie.  Veron's Meat Market8059 FM 1960 East, Humble, TX 77346  www.veronsmeatmarket .com/ 4951

Ronnie did seem to have quiet a following.  While there, every customer in the door seemed to be a regular that knew him personally and it seemed like their go to spot for yummies.  Actually, I think I will go there instead of shopping in the meat department at HEB.  Don't get me wrong, HEB has good stuff, but you can't go in there, point to an item and get a story about the history of the item, how he made it, the ingredients and why he chose this or that.  That's something I love about our community...the local mom and pop places where you can get to know the vendors, etc.  4951
