Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large French bread
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 -3 tomatoes, sliced
1 cup lettuce, shredded
vegetable oil, for deep-frying
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon creole seasoning or 1 tablespoon Emeril's Original Essence
20 shucked oysters, drained or 1 pint oyster
12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
hot pepper sauce, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the French bread in half, crosswise. then cut both of the pieces horizontally in half. Spread the mayo on the bread. Arrange the tomatoes and lettuce on the bottom halves of the bread.
  • Put enough oil into a large and heavy-bottomed pot (or electric deep-fryer) to come up halfway on the sides and then heat the oil over high heat until it reaches 360 degrees F. (Be careful!).
  • Mix the cornmeal with the Creole seasoning and then add the oysters and shrimp, toss to coat. Shake off any excess breading.
  • In batches (no crowding), carefully deep-fry the seafood, turning frequently, until they get a nice golden brown, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the seafood to paper towels to drain. Repeat until you've cooked all the seafood.
  • Put the warm oysters and shrimp on top of the lettuce and tomatoes, season to taste with the hot sauce and top with the bread tops. Enjoy!

The poboy was good, but the bread was a little too hard. I think I would have preferred it if the bread was toasted.

This poboy was a bit too greasy for me. I think I would have preferred it if the shrimp and oysters were grilled instead of fried.

The breading on the shrimp and oysters was a little too thick for my taste, but the overall flavor of the poboy was good.

This poboy was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought hoagie roll and it worked perfectly. The shrimp and oysters were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
