The Shrimp Po’Boy

Many believe that brothers Benny and Clovis Martin created the first version of a po’boy as a free meal for striking New Orleans streetcar drivers in 1929. According to legend, the Martins would say “Here comes another poor boy!” when someone approached for a sandwich, which was half a French bread loaf stuffed with fillings like fried shrimp and oysters.

Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon salt-free Cajun seasoning
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon hot sauce (preferably Louisiana-style)
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and patted dry
Vegetable oil, for frying

For the Remoulade: (seafood dressing)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced dill pickles
2 tablespoons minced shallot or sweet onion
2 teaspoons hot sauce (preferably Louisiana- style), plus more for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 French-bread rolls, split
Shredded lettuce and sliced tomatoes, for serving

Directions
1. Make the shrimp: Whisk the flour, cornmeal, Cajun seasoning, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Stir together the milk and hot sauce in a large bowl; add the shrimp. Working in batches, remove the shrimp from the milk mixture, letting the excess drip off, and add to the bowl with the flour mixture; toss to coat. Transfer to a plate and refrigerate 15 minutes to let the coating set.

2. Meanwhile, make the rémoulade: Combine the mayonnaise, pickles, shallot and hot sauce in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.

3. Fry the shrimp: Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 360˚ F. Working in batches, fry the shrimp until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to the prepared baking sheet with a slotted spoon; season with salt. Adjust the heat as needed between batches.

4. Meanwhile, put the rolls on a baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 5 minutes. Spread the rémoulade on the cut sides and fill with lettuce, the shrimp and tomatoes. Serve with more hot sauce.

DNA samples on shrimp being sold in Glynn County restaurants have been collected We cannot wait to hear the results. It is good to see Charleston restaurants getting called out. Get ready!

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Members of the South Carolina Shrimpers Association held a press conference yesterday where they publicly named 25 Charleston-area restaurants that they claim have defrauded consumers by allegedly misrepresenting the shrimp they serve as South Carolina-caught product.

Christmas Shrimp Wreath with Homemade Cocktail Sauce

Description
Not only is this shrimp appetizer a crowd-pleaser, but it dresses up the table as the perfect holiday centerpiece. The best part? It is really simple to make!
Ingredients
• FOR THE WREATH
• 1 Styrofoam Donut (14"x2" Size)
• 2 bunches Kale, Cleaned, Leaves Separated And Dried
• 50 Toothpicks (fancy)
• 25 Boiled Large Shrimp, Peeled, De-veined And Cooled
• 1 jar Stemless Maraschino Cherries (10 Ounce Jar)
• FOR THE COCKTAIL SAUCE:
• ½ cups Ketchup
• ½ cups Chili Sauce
• 4 Tablespoons Horseradish
• 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
• ½ teaspoons Lemon Juice
• ½ teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
Preparation
For the wreath:
Start by covering the top of the styrofoam donut with the kale. Some of the sides of the styrofoam will still show. You will fill in the sides of the donut once you have finished covering the top. Insert each piece of kale all in the same direction using toothpicks. It will take a couple of toothpicks to hold each piece in place.
After covering the top of the styrofoam with the kale inspect the sides (inside and outside) for any styrofoam that is still visible and fill in those spaces with additional kale leaves.
Leaving existing toothpicks in place that are holding the kale, add shrimp to the top of the styrofoam base using new toothpicks.
Now is the time to add cherries to the toothpicks that are holding the kale in place. Look throughout the kale for toothpicks that are not attached to shrimp. Then hold the kale in place with one hand, carefully pull out each toothpick one at a time, add a cherry and then replace the toothpick with the cherry attached back into the styrofoam.
To make the cocktail sauce, combine ketchup, chili sauce, horseradish, brown sugar, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl and blend well. Pour the sauce into a small circular dish (use one that will fit inside of the foam donut) and place inside the donut hole.
