Roasting shrimp is a great way to bring out their flavor. And it’s really easy, too. Roast them and make a roasted shrimp po boy and you’ve got something really great! I used Chez John’s Kaw-Cajun Comeback sauce on my roasted shrimp po boy. You can also use your favorite remoulade, such as our spicy version. Of course, just a good ole mayonnaise works just fine too. Me, I prefer a spicy sauce on my po boys. And I do truly love po boys.

Nothing Fancy. Just Deliciousness.
The star of the roasted shrimp po boy is of course the shrimp. So there’s no need to bury that great flavor with a lot of ingredients. This sandwich isn’t meant to be fancy. But it is ok if it’s a little messy. Sit down and enjoy, the shrimp are fantastic!
Also try my grilled turkey po boys.
