Tips:
- Use fresh, succulent shrimp. This is the star of the show, so don't skimp on quality. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slight briny smell.

- Use a good quality French bread or baguette. This will provide the perfect base for your po' boy.
- Pile on the toppings. Don't be afraid to load up your po' boy with all of your favorite toppings. Some classic options include lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and onions.
