The story behind Kary's Dry Roux is one of passion and tradition. Kary Lafleur, the owner of Kary's Roux and Pig Stand Bar-B-Q Sauce, grew up immersed in the restaurant business. His father, Archange Lafleur, was a chef in the United States Army during World War II and later ran the renowned Pig Stand Restaurant in Ville Platte, Louisiana for three decades.

Pig Stand Bar-B-Q Sauce, a Cajun-style barbecue sauce made with ketchup, onions, and an array of other flavorful ingredients, has been a local favorite since 1953. It was the signature sauce used on the famous Pig Stand Bar-B-Q plate lunches. In 1963, Archange recognized the growing demand for his Cajun-inspired sauce and began to market it throughout South Louisiana.

In 1975, while Kary was attending the University of Southwestern Louisiana, Archange had another brilliant idea – to create a ready-made roux. Customers had been repeatedly asking to purchase small quantities of the restaurant's traditional Cajun roux, made from flour and oil. Kary and his father teamed up to bring this concept to life, and Kary's Roux was born.

The ready-made roux saved customers the time and effort of making a roux from scratch, allowing them to simply take it out of the jar and add it to boiling water. This convenience, combined with the authentic Cajun flavor, quickly made Kary's Roux a household staple.

Over the years, Kary's Roux has expanded its product line to include a variety of options, such as Kary's Light Roux, Kary's "No Fat" Roux, Kary's Gumbo Mix, Kary's Bisque Mix, Pig Stand Bar-B-Q Sauce, Pig Stand Basting Sauce, Pig Stand "Hot" Bar-B-Q Sauce, and Queen Bee all-purpose seasoning. These products can be found throughout Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, and other parts of the Gulf Coast.
