We travel the state serving up bold, flavorful Cajun dishes you can’t find anywhere else in Nebraska that are crafted with ingredients we haul up from Louisiana and cooked the right way, every time.
Whether you’ve been to the truck or not, you’ll know the second you see it (and smell it): this is the real deal.
Most people in Nebraska have never tasted true Cajun cooking because most places do not go the extra mile. Literally.
At Cajun Prairie, we bring our ingredients straight up from Louisiana. Real gator. Authentic spices. Recipes rooted in generations of Cajun tradition.
We are not just serving food. We are serving heritage, heat, and hospitality.
If you have had it, you know. If you have not, we are coming to your town soon.
Join the list and choose the towns you want to hear about. We will send you an email at the beginning of the week and a reminder on the day we are in your area.
Once you know where we will be, come hungry. Head to the window and order your favorite Cajun dishes fresh off the grill.
Grab your food, find a spot, and dig in. It is that simple. Nothing beats the taste of real Louisiana cooking served up right here in Nebraska.
If you wait for Facebook to show you when we are coming, you might miss it.
Cajun Prairie is not in the same place every week. We move all over the state and when we are in your area, you want to be ready.

My name is Pat Lafleur. I come from a town in south central Louisiana called Opelousas where the Cajun culture is as thick as a good gumbo roux. The Cajuns are of French Canadian descent and are known for their French Zydeco music and Mardi Gras, but mostly their love of cooking.
I moved to Nebraska in 2009 while still working the oil fields in Mexico. Later the oil field went down and I found myself needing to find a new occupation. Nothing better to do than what you love, so I grabbed my favorite cast iron pot and started Cajun Prairie Food Truck. We travel all over Nebraska bringing the Cornhusker state something rarely found, true authentic Cajun cuisine. Whether it’s a fried boudin ball or the andouille sausage we put in our gumbo and jambalaya, it’s all made from scratch. So next time we are in a town near you, stop by, ask for a sample and see what all the fuss is about. Till then, God bless, stay kind, and laissez les bons temps rouler (let the good times roll)
This is what real Cajun food looks like when it is done right.
Every plate we serve is made with ingredients sourced directly from Louisiana and cooked the way it was meant to be, bold, authentic, and full of flavor.
Take a look at what we are bringing to towns across Nebraska.
We are not a chain. We are a homegrown operation built on community, quality, and connection. When people see our truck, they show up.
We go straight to the source. From the gator to the seasoning, every bite is made with real ingredients brought up from the bayou.
Even if it is your first time trying Cajun food, we make it easy. Samples are always available and full plates follow fast.
Most people wait for food to come to town. We make that happen. Just tell us where you live and we will let you know when the truck is rolling through.
If you want to know exactly when the truck is rolling through your city, this is how you do it.
Fill out the form, pick your towns, and we will send you an email at the start of the week and a reminder the day we are coming.
No spam. No guessing. Just a full plate when you want it.
