Grilled Shrimp Po'Boy - A New Englanders 1st Attempt

[gmc2003]

Well I've read allot about them. So I decided to give it whirl with the ingredients I had available at my disposal. Also shrimp happened to be on sale for 5.99/pound.

The Sauce( I know there's another name for this - just can't remember it at this moment).
Missing from the pic: Tony C's creole seasoning, Franks hot sauce and pickle relish.

Simple version: 1 1/2 cups mayo, squirt or two of katchup, two shakes of each onion, garlic cayenne, and chili powder. Three twists of the pepper grinder. A heaping tablespoon of Tony C's. Two shakes of Franks and two table spoons of semi-drained pickle relish.

Peeled and deveined shrimp on the skewrs.

Both sides seasoned with Tony'Cs.

...and onto the Kettle:

French bread with garlic and melted butter to get a slight crisp on the inside is added also basted the shrimp with the same garlic butter:

and the shrimps off the barbie.

First layer is the sauce:

Then the shredded lettuce and tomato

And finally the shrimp:

This sammie met all of our expectations. However I will say that the Tony C's was a bit to salty for our tastes. Next time I will either find another brand or make my own. Overall thou it was very very good.

Thanks for following

Tony C's "More Spice" has about half the salt as regular. Looks great and with the toasted roll, spot on. Love Remoulade sauce on seafood, here's the recipe my granny made;
- 1 Cup mayo
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley
- 1 tbsp Crystal hot sauce
- 2 tbsp whole-grain mustard
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp capers, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp drained dill relish or chopped Cornichon Pickles
- 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 scallion, minced
- kosher salt/cracked bp to taste
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- horseradish to taste

Thanks Braz, I'm surprised there not very popular around here. At least I don't notice them on the menus when we eat out.

Thank you Wimpy, I'm going to bookmark your grandmas recipe for the next time. I knew I forgot something - the mustards. I picked up some brown spicy and ground to add but forgot about it - dang.

Thank you chopsaw for the nice words and tip. Overcooking the shrimp was my biggest concern.

Wimpy also mentioned the More spice. Is it still Creole, and I'll have to look for the no salt. I rather control the amount of salt.

Looks real tasty Chris!!

Cant believe I missed this. Great looking sandwich Chris! As always I'm sure the PBR was cold and refreshing.

Lately I've been marinating shrimp in EVOO lime juice soy sauce sriracha honey and minced garlic then grilling it on skewers. Goes great in salads and just by itself. If you want something tasty and different give it a try sometime
