Fried Shrimp Po
Bring New Orleans to your kitchen with this classic version of a Shrimp Po Boy. Our seafood breading and veggie seasoning makes prep easy enough for anyone, even if they're not much into cooking.
We like our Shrimp Po Boys spicy and our Hot and Crunchy Dill Pickles gives it the perfect fiery crunch. If you're looking for something less hot, we have other pickle options in our online shop that don’t bring as many heat waves on board...but if you love fire from down below (and up top!), serve them with some additional hot sauce too!
