Shrimp Po' Boy Sandwich

Updated: Apr 9

Craving bold Southern flavor with a kick? This Shrimp Po’ Boy Sandwich is a Kountryville twist on the Louisiana classic—packed with crispy shrimp, zesty roumalade, and a punch of Old Bay Heat. Perfect for lunch, dinner, or whenever you’re feeling that Cajun craving!

A Shrimp Po’ Boy Sandwich in a basket, topped with crispy fried shrimp, sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and pickles, drizzled with sauce on a hoagie roll.
Crispy, golden shrimp piled high on a French loaf with classic toppings and a spicy Old Bay drizzle—the Kountryville Shrimp Po’ Boy.

What you'll need:

1 loaf French bread

½ pound Argentine red shrimp

4 cups Slap Ya Mama Cajun Fish Fry

2 eggs, beaten

2 tomatoes

Shredded lettuce

Kosher dill pickle slices/chips

Old Bay seasoning

Old Bay Hot Sauce

Roumalade sauce

Garlic butter, melted

Oil, for frying


Instructions:


  1. Heat oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to 350°F.


  2. Dip the shrimp into the beaten eggs, coating them evenly.


  3. Toss the egg-coated shrimp in the Cajun Fish Fry mix until fully covered.


  4. Carefully add shrimp to the hot oil and fry for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and set aside to drain.


  5. Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise, then cut down the middle to create sandwich portions.


  6. Drizzle melted garlic butter inside each sandwich roll.


  7. Layer with sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, pickle chips, and fried shrimp.


  8. Sprinkle Old Bay seasoning over the toppings, then finish with drizzles of Old Bay Hot Sauce and roumalade.


And that’s it—plate ‘em up and dig in!


Note: Adjust seasonings and toppings to your taste.


Flavor Tip from Kountry Kevin:

For a bold twist, swap out your regular fish fry with a sprinkle of Kountryville Bayou Seafood Dust before frying. This blend adds that zesty bayou flavor with hints of lemon and garlic—perfect for shrimp that’s talkin’ with every bite. Want more heat? Add a dash of Kountry Kick for a Cajun-Creole punch you won’t forget!
