    Shrimp Po'boy with Spicy Ketchup

    A New Orleans specialty, this famed French bread sandwich got its start during the railway strike in 1922. Restaurant owners Bennie and Clovis Martin offered any "poor boy" without work a free meal. Today, you'll find variations stuffed with fried shrimp, oysters, chicken, and roast beef–all deliciously satisfying.
