The Walker Family, hailing from the proud Cajun town of Ville Platte, Louisiana, is proud to produce their line of top-quality Cajun seasonings and recipes. Ville Platte, the self-proclaimed smoked meats capital of the world, is also famous for its modern-day jousting tournament, the incomparable Floyd's Record Shop, and the magnificent Chicot State Park. It was here, in 1956, that Wilda Marie Fontenot Walker gave birth to Anthony Walker, affectionately known as "TW," the one-of-a-kind creator and sole originator of the award-winning Slap Ya Mama brand seasoning.

While running the Walker family deli, TW set out to find a seasoning that had a real Cajun pepper taste without the heavy salt content of the national brands. When he couldn't find one, he did what folks in this part of the country do best – he went to work and dreamed one up. TW's sons, Jack and Joe, were very young back then, and they loved rolling around and causing general bouts of mayhem. The Walkers put their boys to work rolling an antique glass pickle jar around the floor of the family deli, mixing their homegrown Cajun seasoning – the perfect combination of work and play.

Everybody loved the Walkers' Cajun seasoning so much that it needed a name. To the folks who came into the deli asking to take home the Cajun seasoning, TW would often proclaim, "When you use this seasoning, the food tastes so good, you'll receive a loving slap on the back and a kiss on the cheek for creating such a great tasting Cajun dish." And that's how the Walker & Son's Cajun brand Slap Ya Mama was born.

Slap Ya Mama offers a range of products, including Cajun Etouffee Sauce, Seafood Boil, Cajun Seasonings, Cajun Hot Sauces, Dinner Mixes, and Cajun Fish Fry. The Cajun Etouffee Sauce is an authentic down-home etouffee base that is so much like their grandmother's, you'd swear Wilda Marie is in the back cooking up batches by the tons from scratch. The Seafood Boil is a unique blend of spices that will enhance any food you might throw in a pot of boiling water, with a Cajun flavor like no other and less sodium than most. The Cajun Seasonings include the Original Blend, the Hot Blend of Cajun zesty flavors, and the White Pepper Blend for those who want a better kick outside of ordinary black pepper.

The Cajun Hot Sauces are bursting with Cajun heat and flavor, perfect for all of your favorite dishes and sure to make your taste buds come alive with that Cajun zest. The Dinner Mixes make it possible for everyone to provide their family and friends with an authentic Cajun meal, whether it's Red Beans & Rice, Gumbo, or Jambalaya, all designed to be prepared in a short amount of time with incredible ease. Finally, the Cajun Fish Fry is an authentic Cajun fry batter that will give your food the perfect color, the perfect crunch, and an incredible Cajun flavor to almost any fried dish.
