Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Vegetable oil for frying
1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp (about 36), peeled, deveined
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
4 8"-long French rolls, split horizontally
Rémoulade Sauce or mayonnaise
Shredded iceberg lettuce
Sliced tomatoes
Dill pickles
Hot pepper sauce (optional), preferably Crystal

Steps:

  • Whisk first 8 ingredients in a small bowl to blend.
  • Attach a deep-fry thermometer to side of a heavy wide pot. Add enough oil to measure 2". Heat over medium heat to 350°.
  • Meanwhile, place shrimp and 2 tablespoons spice mix in a medium bowl and toss to coat. Pour buttermilk into another medium bowl. Whisk flour and cornmeal in another medium bowl.
  • Dip seasoned shrimp briefly in buttermilk, then coat with flour mixture. Working in batches, fry shrimp, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Open rolls and spread cut sides with rémoulade. Top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and shrimp. Serve with hot sauce, if desired.

I made this poboy for my family and they loved it. Even my kids, who are picky eaters, ate it all up.

I'm not a fan of remoulade sauce, so I used a different sauce on my poboy. It was still delicious.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but the poboy still turned out great. I used a different type of bread and added some extra spices to the shrimp.
