I need Chourice for a Cajun recipe. What is it and mainly where can I find it in the grocery store? Is it available in the spices section? I tried to google it but couldn't find a picture of it.

Chourice is Chorizo and can be found in the spanish section of your grocery store. Chourice is how the Cajun/French call it.

Some traditions brought from France flowered on the Cajun prairies. Charcuterie, the smoking and curing of meat, was developed into myriad distinct products. Sausages such as andouille and chourice contain blends of spices. Saucisse boucanne is a beef or pork sausage that is smoked to help it keep and give it flavor. Tasso, sometimes of beef but more often pork, is marinated for several days then coated with cayenne pepper and other spices and smoked.

It is a spice mixture. You may need to go to a specialty or gourmet store to find it.
