OH BOY!--TONITE A PO- BOY!

        One type of a meal that I have not had in many a moon is a favorite--A Shrimp Po-Boy. For some of you that are unfamiliar withe sandwich or term its origin goes back to the early 1900's and New Orleans, Loiusiana.

         The first time I had that sandwich was at a New Orleans Jazz Festival during the late 1980's. The one I had and loved was a Fried Shrimp Po-Boy which is simply fried shrimp on French Bread or similiar with tartar sauce recipe, onion, thin sliced tomato, lettuce, and hot sauce to liking.

         The origin of this sandwich is as many as the different recipes fo the actual sandwich. Most shrimp po-boys are made with fried shrimp as I prefer boiled just fried(blackened) for two minutes or less. Like  a lot of Cajun food it starts with ingrediants that are simple, local and available. Yum!
